going to get my 2 front wheels refurbed. what is the colour of standard mk1 straights. is £40-50 a wheel a good price line to work on. does that price usually include tyres off and back on and balanced. any help will be appriciated.
that price should include removal, refit and balancing!! Price seems about right, an if your just getting them redone in standard colour the refurbers should just be able to bring up the paint code:)

Where were you looking at getting them done? I cleaned mine today and thought my wheels need freshening up.
