Alloy Wheel Refurbishment in Scarborough

Q: How long does alloy wheel refurbishment take?

Most refurbishments are completed within 72 hours. Colour changes, larger sets and diamond cut work can take longer.

Q: Can you repair kerbed alloy wheels?

Yes. Kerb scuffing is the most common damage we see, and it's fully repaired rather than filled and painted over.

Q: Can you change the colour of my alloy wheels?

Yes. Colour changes and full restyles are a regular part of what we do.

Q: Do I need to remove the tyres first?

No. We remove the tyres, refurbish the wheels, then refit and balance them before you collect.

Kerbed, corroded, pitted or just tired — Trenhams Wheels restores alloy wheels properly, in our own workshop, usually within 72 hours. Prices from £75 per wheel.

Refurbishment, not a cover-up

There's a quick version of this job that involves filling and painting the damaged bit and hoping for the best. It looks acceptable for a while and then it doesn't. We do it properly — each wheel is stripped back, treated, powder coated and cured, which is why it lasts and why it takes 72 hours rather than an afternoon.

Our eight-step restoration process

Individual assessment

Every wheel inspected on its own merits before anything starts.

Chemical clean

Old finish and oxidisation removed completely.

Surface preparation

Damage repaired and the surface brought back true.

De-gassing & pre-heating

Trapped gases driven out so the finish doesn't blister later.

Powder coat primer

A uniquely formulated primer laid down as the foundation.

Wet colour

Your colour applied, original finish or a change.

Curing

Baked in our purpose-built oven for a hard, durable finish.

Rebuild

Valves and tyres refitted and the wheel balanced, ready to go back on.

Prices

From £75

Per wheel for a 16-inch diameter, up to £105 for a 24-inch. Final price depends on wheel size, condition and finish — ring us with your wheel size for a proper figure.

Refurbish or replace?

A refurbished wheel that's been stripped, treated and properly coated will do everything a new one does, at a fraction of the cost — and it keeps the original wheel on the car. Replacement tends to make sense only where a wheel is cracked or structurally damaged, a small minority of what comes through the door.

★★★★★

“I have been using Trenhams for many years and have always been very satisfied. Most recently, I took my Bentley in to have the wheels completely refurbished with a colour change. Results came out better than factory.”
