Black Turini's?

[Pablo]

How rare are these, and how much would you expect to pay for a set?

Must say, I quite adore them and would love a set for my Dynamique.
I know there's mixed feeling on them apparently too on the forums?

Can they be purchased new/reconditioned in black, or is there a known person who sprays them either in the gun metal colour or black etc?
Just looking for a bit of info on a set

Thanks guys,


Pete.

in 16" I dont know of other cars using turinis but they came in silver for the 172 cup and anthracite on 182 trophy (ET45), I have never seen a set of black ones for sale, refurb would be cheaper prob, some silver ones on here for £200 no tyres just now, begging to be re-furb'd

You cant get them new, as rory says.

Buy the cheapest, worst condition cup alloys you can find, as they'd need respraying to make them black anyways.

Then any good wheel refurbishing company can make them black for you, expect to pay up to £200 for all four to be refurbished and sprayed.

And voila, brand new wheels for a steal!

Take a standard set of turinis and go somewhere like lab-tab iirc thats where bubbles had hers done.

Fred has a good rep for re-furbs too

Yes im pretty sure thats who he uses.

 

[Pablo]

Look stunning Chris + Tim :rasp: Really do, ffs lol

Well thats exactly what Id want, and £200 isn't as bad as I thought for respray tbh.
I wasn't sure that some were produced in black, as had seen some gunmetal ones on ebay which I think are still up there, and I think those were reconditioned too.

Where are labtec based?
I'm based in Northants, anywhere local thats recommended?


Thanks,

Pete.
