| How much should I pay for New Stilo Alloys Hi guys, Just wanted some advice. I have a '52 Abarth and the original alloys are corroding. I was thinking of buying some original FIAT replacements, like for like. Firstly I wanted to know what should I look at paying for a set of new rims? Secondly if I chose to refurnish them are there different types of treatments? I have heard of powder coating, is this different to anything else? Thanks in advance JD

| Re: How much should I pay for New Stilo Alloys A new set from Fiat is gonna cost about £600 for 4 but a refurb wil only be about £50 a wheel. I got quoted £265 for a full refurb and a change of colour from a company in Birmingham. I can't think of any other processes other than powder coating.

| You can't fool owls.  | Re: How much should I pay for New Stilo Alloys Powder coating is what you want. Pay between £20 and £50 per wheel for a full refurb with machining of any kerbing. Think there are a few posts of wheels that have been done.
