Here are what some of the customers think who have had their wheels refurbished at The Wheel Specialists newest franchise
“Thanks for doing such a fantastic job of my Z4 wheels. All 4 wheels were in very poor condition before having them refurbished. There was corrosion around the spokes and bolt holes, and to make things worse I didn’t have a locking wheel nut key from the previous owner. My wheels now look like new and I’m very pleased with the finish. Not only do you do you guys do a great job, but the customer service was as good as it gets – I would definitely use you again and recommend you to anyone considering having their wheels done.
Thanks Alex and the other guys (sorry I didn’t catch your names).”
