Hi All,
I have a 718 Boxster with 20-inch Carrera Sport Wheels.
I'm finding that despite my best efforts, the wheels are beginning to accumulate the odd stone chips and what I call very surface "gravel rash." At some point I think I will need to get the wheels repaired or refurbished to bring them back to showroom condition.
Is it just me that suffers this kind of wear and tear on the wheels? I park miles away from kerbs to avoid kerb scuffing, so it is frustrating to have these kind of blemishes.
I do often drive B roads that can have patches of loose gravel that have been dragged over from junctions with side roads, or from the verge.
What and where would you recommend to get the wheels restored to their former glory? I wondered whether Mitchell Inglis in Glasgow would be a good bet? I believe they are an approved Porsche repairer.
Is it a bad idea to accept the wheels will need reconditioned periodically and get them done once every 12- 18 months, as necessary?
Any advice would be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Peter
