My Berli comes of age this year and for her 21st birthday I am thinking of getting new wheels. That, or I get my existing ones re-conditioned.
A few questions:
- Re-conditioning could be the "dip and strip" thing but I am told this is not a great finish. Any comments?
- Anodising - is this something I should look into instead of dip and strip. Anyone have any comments?
- I have no idea about what to look for in terms of wheel spec if I am to get new wheels. Can someone point me in the right direction for a Cortina based Berli and what I am supposed to ask when looking for replacements ie offset etc?
Totally ignorant of the complexities involved so looking for as much advice as poss.
Thanks in advance.
