    Wheelfix-Limerick

    Has anybody used this crowd they are based in Ballyneety in Limerick. Looking to get my set of 19" spiders refurbed. No cracks or welds on them just some kerb marks and a full re-spray. Hoping he can fill the kerb marks with weld rather than metal filler. Anybody experience/dealings and rough idea of pricing with them?

    I haven't used them but have heard some positive feedback on them. I have used Wheel Doctor just outside Tipp town for a few sets and can recommend him. He charged €70 a wheel iirc and his quality and finish was excellent, even with a couple of fairly nasty wheels to start with. He didn't charge anything more for a set that needed some attention to some nasty kerbing.

    were your wheels already shot blasted or did he do the whole lot? the finish looks good. what sort of a ball park figure did he charge you to do them as a matter of interest?
    have heard very good reviews about wheel doctor but wheelfix is only 15/20 mins away from me i would prefer to keep the business local if i could.

    He done the lot.... Cost €240. (He got someone else to paint the caps as they're plastic)

    Wheel Doctor is also top notch, Had my Sierra Wheels done by him.

    Are the wheels you got refurbed by him powder coated or sprayed? Think ill call into him tomorrow for a quote and see his setup. cant argue with 240 to be fair seems very reasonable.

    I got him to refurb the mv2 alloys on my 320d a few years ago. Did a very good job and the wheels still look great. He charged €280 for all 4 wheels.
