      I have used them in the past but they no longer do splits like mine

            There was a company in Preston I used called WRC , I've no idea if they are still operating, but they did everything wheel refurbishing related . I got a couple straightened by them , they did it while I waited so I had time to look around and their work looked pretty good to me . The wheels I had straightened balanced up fine .

              I used these in the past for both my regular and split rim alloys. Have to say that I wasn't particularly impressed with split rim work. It was ok, but just ok.

                To be fair , it's at least 9 years since I used them , probably longer !

                  Dave, have you looked at Lepsons, I've just Googled "refurb split rims" and they came up as doing split rims. I've never used them so can't comment on quality of work. Problem is they not exactly local to you.

                    I second who witek suggests. I haven’t had anything done myself but I follow Dan’s Instagram account and his workmanship is brilliant

                      Maybe ask the question on the z4 forum , there'll probably be more people on there with experience of wheel refurbs

                        The place that did mine did a cracking job

                        But I can’t remember the name 😁

                          Shipped mine to Dan over 1400 miles one way. Took 2 weeks to complete and had it back home.
