Alloy wheel repair in the Wokingham/Bracknell area

Post by Stevie1982 » Wed Oct 07, 2020 8:59 am

Morning all

I'm in need to have the alloys refurbished, at the same time as refurb I was going to opt for a slight chance in colour to a titanium/anthracite finish to off set them as they are currently the OEM silver finish and the car is white. Anyone know the paint code for the titanium colour used on the runout B7 RS4 alloys?

Looking for recommendations as I'd rather go where the work is to a high standard.

I'm based in Wokingham/Bracknell area Berkshire.

Thanks in advance

Couldn't fault them

I’ve used WheelWorx in warfield:

several times. They do a great job.

There is also another one called Warfield wheels, they are great too. They are based in Bracknell.

Hi, thanks for the heads up. Funnily both have come recommended. I popped to Warfield wheels and wheelworkz to be honest they both charge the same so there's not much in it albeit the later seemed overall a better set up.

On a side note, I see in your signature you have a RS4 B7 Sprint Blue with the Titanium Pack. Any chance you've got some pictures of the wheels and even better if you had an idea of the colour code for them? As I'm thinking they would suit a S5

Colour code is L8AU. Wheel worx did them for me. Ironically the two polish guys at Bracknell did a better job than wheelworx, that said I’ve just had a set of 19s done in Matt black and they are lovely. Their work has def got better. The finish on the titanium should be Matt, not gloss.

That's the colour I'm after, think it'll suit the Glacier White on the S5.

Sorry I'm a little confused, you've had the work done by Wheelworkz? But Warfield Wheels is better?

I was under the impression that the finish should be Satin? But you suggest Matt?

Your car looks spot on

Wheelworkz did my first set, they were ok. Had a few inclusions in the paint that annoyed me. Then I used warfield wheels and they were flawless. Recently (last 6 weeks) I used Wheelworkz again for my A4 and they were perfect.
