Wheel Doctor - still in the business?

[hooch]

My diamond cut and big bend repair is still perfect, so are all the other wheels I’ve sent up there. Maybe you were unlucky hooch?

Possibly, as far as I know he did a refurb on the Pretoria wheels on my R too and they have been perfect in fairness. I'm not a big fan of diamond cut wheels over all, don't know why so many manufacturers went for it.

Totally agree - they're one step away from US style chrome wheels imo.

They are not remotely suitable for wet/damp climates with a bit of salt/grit thrown in - they seem to have zero longevity in relation to finish (one stone chip and they start to degrade badly) - no matter how clean they're kept....

Aesthetics over practicality. Making their product appear higher in quality.....fur coat, no knickers!!

Will give Wheelfix a call so.

Let us know how you get on D. I was in Radfix, Galway on Mon to pickup up some parts they powder-coated for me and enquired about getting herself's CC's alloys refurb'd and he said call back in Sep - they're flat out doing wheels at the moment - piles of them everywhere awaiting powder-coating.

The country is calling out out for real high quality wheel refurbishers - like undertakers, there'd be no shortage of business....
