Hi All. Is there such a thing as a one stop shop for wheels ? If there are, does anyone have any recommendations near portsmouth / Hampshire ? I possibly need this straightened out and possibly all stripped, polished etc.

Wheel unique / Dan Taylor real name is one of the go to guys but he’s up Yorkshire I think. There are a few others whose names escape me now but unsure if any are based on the south coast.

Thanks for the info. Possibly a bit far, but I'll keep him in mind if nothing else comes about. Cheers. Love your little Honda Acty by the way. Fantastic Build thread too.

No worries and thanks I’ve just remembered about these guys in Kent so a bit closer, I’ve not seen any of their work personally but have been going since 1984... spitandpolish.co.uk@spitandpolish1984 on instagram

Thanks for the suggestions chaps. Being a path of least resistance kind of bloke, I started looking about a bit more locally and I found a place in Fareham that seemed ok, then I read a thread on Pistonheads with quite a few people who had used them and were very happy with everything, and still were quite a few years later. I'm going to go there tomorrow or thursday to drop the wheels off. I'll post up results if they get the wheels sorted. Thanks again for the suggestions, much appreciated.

These are my go to guys for this work - www.myalloys.co.uk/ - based in Basingstoke so not a million miles from you - never had a bad job from them and I send a lot of work to them - they really do know their stuff and have never messed me about

Thanks Grumps. Appreciate the extra option In the end I went with these folks: thewheelspecialist.co.ukDid a really good job of straightening it out and checked the other 3 over for me. Nice and friendly, good communication etc. They've also quoted £108 / wheel all in, to re-finish the alpinas in this post link in a nice classic looking silver, with satin black centres, just to give you an idea of costs. Didn't think that was too bad at all really. Will post up an image of them after straightening tomorrow.
