Yes, onMonday 12th November I'm taking my rims to KN Wheels, Ketley, Telford, UK
Quoted me approx £30 per wheel.
Each wheel will bechemically stripped / blasted / treated, primed, painted and laquered - 7 to 10 days turn round.
I'll let you see the results.
I'm also going to fit a new set of tyres after refurband will probably stick with the stock stuff - Pirelli P6000 Powergy.
Anyone got any alternative suggestions?

Hey Kenzed, Buck makes a really good point.
Thats exactly what I did when I first got the X around a year or so ago. I refurbed the alloys and drove home etc, The wife then took the car to the shopping centre and called to complain of a " wobble"
Turned out after only 15 miles or so the wheel nuts had worked loose.......really loose!!!![&:]
If you do get it done tighten them and then drive a short distance, maybe 2-3 miles and then re- tighten and check after a further 50 miles or so to be safe
