Anyone know of a really good rim guy who can machine and remake studs in alloy wheels, and make up spacers and adaptor plates... I heard of some guy in labrador but nothing comes up.

I am keen to get it all done, I have to get these offsets right, will let you know. Are you considering some surgerty too?

They all look good, thanks guys, I am sending them the same email see what comes back. Dr Wheels has a pic of Dick Johnson and a humungous lathe... looking neat I will look up the brissy guys... you guys are awesome... Thanks
Good on you for sharing the details Now some a*sehat high pressured the chrome of a set of 17's I have (OZ Racing, Italian made came with my car from Japan) what sort of ball park figure should I expect to re chrome a set?
I use Depulu in Ashmore Last time I used them they re-sealed four wheels, rolled two dings out and polished my Simmons like new. Good work at a good price. Total damage was $550 http://www.depuluwheels.com/index.html
not cheap, i imagine .... my VOLKS cost $150 per wheel ($600) for the rims to be polished and spokes painted ... included 4 Volk stickers ... lol...
Any idea if any of these guys would be able to fit wider dish to existing 3 piece rims, or would that cost as much as buying deeper dished wheels? I want to make mine wider...MUCH wider without forking out for new wheels.
