Tony did they split the rims? I presume so and did they use the same Titanium bolts? I want to get mine done, they were done just before I bought the car, but the seller told me he was quoted £350 to refurb the wheels so accepted that quote, they stripped the wheels down, but then phoned him and told him that the bolts were stretched and required new bolts, these were £3.50 each so 80 new bolts needed. total cost was £630, and I have the receipt to prove it, that's why I am unsure as to refurb them or just but a new set of aftermarket wheels.

They look brilliant by the way same thing I want to do but darker centres.

I split the rims before taking them to be done mate. I cleaned the bolts and tried a new 7mm nut on each one to make sure the thread was ok. I got the correct torque figure from BBS in the USA The powder coating company rebuilt them for me. Total cost £275. I'm well happy at that.

ps. Did this company return all the old bolts as I'm very sceptical that they were needed to be honest and just because they charged for them ;)

Not sure Tony, they were done two months before I bought the car, but I smell a rat as they did not do a good job of the refurb I think the previous owner was done good style, I know who done them as I have the invoice, so will keep away from them..https://www.thewheelspecialist.co.uk/locations/chestercheshire/

Used them once, never again. Managed to snap one of the locking bolts refitting the wheels, 5 o'clock on a Friday with a couple of hours drive home to go. Paint started lifting after a couple of years, too. Think I'll go somewhere else next time.
