Try a Company called Wicked Wheels (don't know if they operate in Ireland) but they have repaired my Gun Metal TE37's in the past ....

And after my most recent venture onto Eurostar, will be doing again soon.

I had mine stove enamelled as they did not stay looking good.

Apologies for the big picture

I used the company linked to below, great service and reasonable priced.

For the record, I am not connected with them in any way.

Any luck finding anywhere that will do your wheels Mike? I've got 18" Bronze TE37's on my 33 aswell and would like to get them refurbed... I've found a few recommendations on the forum but they are both in scotland and (being in london) this is a bit too far for me!

No mate nothing, the stumbling block seems to be the polished lip. I've found a place in basildon that does annodising and have quoted roughly £30 per wheel although will give a final price when they see them. I'm going to run down there and see what they say

Surely someone must have had their wheels re-annodised?

Yeah they said bring them down and they;'d have a look but said he doubted whether they could do them. I was hoping for a specialist wheel refurber to be honest
