Although it may be listed elsewhere ...it would be great, where possible, to
include a phone number, e-mail or snail mail address for a vendor that you
recommend. Just a thought.

Hey Richard:
I live in in Northern CA (about 5 hours away from British Wire Wheel) and
had them rebuild a chrome ww for me about two years ago. They seem very
service oriented, prices were competitive and the wheel came back perfect!
They also, as I recall, pay for the return shipping. the wheel was back on
my car in about a week.
They now advertise in our club newsletter and many of our members have used
their services with the same results as me. One member even drove his
Healey down to the shop and had his ww and tires replaced while he waited
(appointment required for this!!).
Highly recommended...go for it!
