protec do rally car prep not alloy wheel repair, wrc does wheels in brig

[ToonType-R]

Possibly mate, im not to familar with locations in Preston.

Is the WRC you mean on School Lane in Bamber Bridge? I'll be ringing tomorrow to get a rough price for the work (and see if there is any chance it can be done before Sunday)

Have you used Protect before out of interest?

Yeah we are talking about the same place, it is on school lane, Protec is just a PPE place that i use through work, I always turn around at the industrial estate where WRC is and always seems busy.

Hey mate, rang WRC this afternoon. For them to do all four tyres (taking and leaving your car there) is £305. That's WRC completely stripping the alloy to the metal, getting rid of any scratches/dents/curbs and powder coating them back up and balancing all tyres too. They said the car would be with them for 2 days. Works out at £76.25 a tyre (wheather there is any discount in the total price for getting all 4 done im not sure). You think that's reasonable?

Hi mate, first of all I would like to say thanks for ringing up and letting me know the quote. To be honest I am not that clued up to wether that is a good price, but personally I think that is quite steep, someone may well post up and say what you talking about that is a good price, but me personally I wouldnt pay that, I would rather get my tyres took off somewhere and try it myself with a little help from friends, but thats just me. I am almost sure there is a place in Lytham that do it called alloy wheel expert, think they are mobile and have a workshop and its closer to you, might be worth a try. Thanks again mate :thumbup:

No worries at all mate. To be honest, im not that clued up either and agree, the price seems a little steep from what friends have said. I have asked around about where other people go and waiting to here from them. I'll have a shop around and let you know if I find any cheaper prices :thumbup:
