thanks:afro:
Jervis arnopp, Dunmanway Co.cork. (023)8845883. He'll charge 50 a corner.
Jervis has been making banded steels for donkeys years for motorsport. He'll gaurantee you they will never split. He'll give you a speil about running tubes just to cover his arse as he wont gaurantee they'll hold air because like everything theres always one. You'll need to sand/fill/paint afterwards as he does not provide the service as this isn't something he does full time, just a sideliner to his extremly busy garage.
Keith nevin in bandon is who you tell him sent you.

Hopefully requesting my paypal details so you can send me some beer money?
He also charges 200 for any size, any width. But jervis is closer to you. You'd be in dunmanway in an hour.

i pm the lad in kilkenny 2 weeks ago just to look he couldnt do them for a few weeks but he wanted 250 to make 15s 8jfront 9j rear and et15 all round which isnt bad in fairness
Hmmm, cost is on the up but for whats involved and the quality i'd give him the 250 and an oul tug. I'll drop his number in the above post later on.

Again, keith nevin in bandon is where ya got his details.
Would it be much of a job to re-band wheels that are a tad too wide?

Yeh, i'd not bother. What ya got? What size? what wont they fit? Any pics. Better job to sell and start over IMO.

Sell and start over Denis. Be a shame cutting them and redoing the work plus your adding a third weld to the wheels for no reason.
200 euro is very cheap! I'd nearly just send mine down to him rather than do them myself for that :p
I did a couple of sets for 300 and it was barely worth my while. That was including blasting them and abit of colour but still, made fookall on them :rolleyes:

There 9.5 rears and 9 fronts, thinking about putting the 9's on the rear and making up some 8.5's for the fronts as its the fronts im having bother with, and 16's are hard to come by :(
its these wheels.

I remember them from your intro thread. If i grab ya some 16" steels in standard form, what'll you want for the rears?
Id use the ones i have on the fronts now for the rears. what are the 16's off?
Depends, are ya 5stud or 4 stud E30?
Renault then in that case i guess. Sure talk money to me and i'll see if its worth the hassle of getting some. Prob be as cheap for me to find em and band a pair myself.

Get me some 16s while your at it Keith! :p

Yeh you were first on the list. Well, i'm first, anymore after that are yours. I'll have a few pound in a few weeks i'll start hunting then. Was no real point in me looking for them since we spoke last as i hadn't a button for me shirt let alone a few pound for steels.

haha its not that. its just its very cheap for banding,compared to bandedsteels.com
Hmmm, see banded steels is in uk and its their business. Bandedsteels finish the wheels paint etc etc. With this man ya paint em yourself. Sure a tin of spray is only a 5er in the motorfactors.
