£125 is way too expensive

That said, are they splitting all the wheels and taking the tyres on and off ?

I have had 20" splits done there for less than that price ..

Did you speak to a woman by any chance?

If you have the rims already split with the tyres off there are a couple of local powder coaters that will do the set for £120ish

Chicago coatings
Ashton powder coating

Yeh I've used Ashton p c, 3 times , prices seem to have gone up a touch to About £140, or they'll now take your tyres off , replace and balance £200,

Got my set back today & as expected not 100% flawless but for that you would need paint + lacquer as opposed to powdercoat
Anyhow went for something different to the black or silver centre :wink:
