The wheels were in bad nick as you can see from the pictures so I had them sandblasted and etch primered to stop any more rust then when they came back they were quite pitted so filled them myself and had them sprayed elsewhere it was only £20 per wheel for the sandblasting and etch premiering which saved a lot of time with a wire brush haha. The company that done them were R&J finishers in crayford they were great had all my suspension arms engine cowlings etc done there aswell. http://randgfinishers.co.uk
