Hi,
Any recommended alloy wheel repair specialists around South Bucks/West London/Hertfordshire areas?

Also are they classed as diamond cut or polished wheels? I know they are described as ‘painted in Titan Grey with highly polished front surfaces’ in the configurator, but not sure if these are classed as true polished alloy wheels for purposes of repair- similar to Bentley/Rolls polished alloys.

I’m going to make a claim on my wheel insurance (west London) so if you can wait I’ll see who the insurer gives me as options and let you know ?

I recommend you give the Dent Wizard franchise in your area a call. They have lathes for diamond cut repairs in their van and they can also do replication as I have chronicled here twice being a serial scragged. I have used them for both lathe action (annoys the neighbors as very loud) and replication here

When I used to live in Notting Hill I went to Diamond Alloys in Northolt just off the A40. Super easy access and near tube station. I was worried as my A5 rotor alloys were matt gunmetal + diamond cut but came out as new. They do collection I think

CT wheels are diamond cut - only a very very few cars actually have polished wheels as they corrode easily

A photo of the type of damage you are referring to would be helpful….

Bespoke Alloys at Denham are brilliant.
They did a full refurb on my 22" Diamond cut BMW alloy last year.....full strip, paint and cut then lacquer for £96 Inc vat.
Your welcome to look at the job they did for me and compare the repaired wheel to the brand new ones on the rear.
They're Diamond Cut

I am not in the UK but the good news is this damage isn’t fatal. Any reputable shop that does repairs can fix this up for you. If you plan to leave the car with them, I would go with someone that regularly handles nice vehicles. I have seen a few shops that are good on repairs but they aren’t in places that I would want to leave my vehicle.

Hi,

I am new to this thread but also looking for a good alloy repairer for my Taycan GTS in the West London area. I see both Diamond Alloys and Bespoke Alloys have been recommended on this thread. I just wanted to check you still stand by them, and would continue to recommend them? In particular, I assume there were no issues leaving the Taycan there for 72 hours or so?

Thanks,

Azeem
