They used to be part of the Lepsons chain. I've had all four of my W216 20" AMG alloys refurbished by them as well as having a 19" AMG welded by them. Very good workmanship and not too expensive.

For the best job
Lepsons or the Wheel Specialist Fareham

Nice car dont waste your time with a rubbish company.
My refurb at a supposedly great place was a partial waste of money and time!
Learn the hard way!

Any doubts look for referrals of the 2 above on here ... everyone is delighted.

Lepsons in Kent.

I personally stopped using S&P.

+1 for Lepsons. I had my badly kerbed wheels refurbished by them
which was both detailed,comprehensive & thorough.They have completed
16 months usage(Including winter tyre fitment) & remain pristine.

Thanks for all your replies - decided to start local and discovered ally welding and powdercoating next door to friendly local garage - which can also get 255/40 zr19 Pirelli P zero Rosso for £180. Will report experience, but feeling better now!
