   how much would you expect to pay for 4 alloys to be refurb in and around leicester or would it be better to jus buy a new set?
   any help appreciated cheers jay

   Some people say £50 a wheel.
   
   i know people who will do them for £25 a wheel, or £1 an inch.
   
   Paints etc, depending what colour will come to like £30-40, I wanted mine in Anthracite which was more expensive, so just left them to Jason to do for me instead.

   most bodyshops will charge approx £40 a wheel mate. You can do them yourself but chances are they wont be as good as a proffesional job

   I did mine myself. I wouldnt advise doing it if you need your car, i had to rush mine. You need to leave it about 3 days for the paint to propperly dry then 1 day atleast for the laquer, i left the paint for about 15 hours... and laquer about 3 hours lol. So if you do it yourself, get steelies so it doesnt matter how long it takes.

   i did mine myself to my car isnt on th road so dident have to worry just left my car on axle stands and done all four, i was pritty chuffed about the results to but if you do want a proper job you have to pay the price , i only spent about 25 quid and the paint was good quality aswell so cheaper to do them yourself to
