In Hampshire I can recommend http://www.solentwheels.com/ at Romsey who I have used. They also fit tyres and back-balance them so that no weights show.

Might not help if you live far away though. :|

dwg397,

You haven't mentioned in your profile where you live. However, Spit 'n' Polish in Tonbridge have done my 5-spoke diamond-cut wheels with good results. They have the the x-section cutting profiles for 000's of different models and will make profiles if they get a wheel that they haven't seen before.

Thanks for all your info chaps. Ended up at The Wheel Specialist Fareham. They did a very good job. Can certainly recommend them. :D

Fareham! Centre of The World!!
