   You've got to love saxp, welcome to the friendly environment. But at least you got the link to refurb guide. As for getting new wheels with tyres, you just get new tyres, they take the worn out tyres off and put the new tyres on. As say above there is a search function, and if you at the top of the sections there are stickeys that usually have answers to such questions.

   For the price of a powercoat for four steels you could get a set of Alloy wheels.
