I need to have one of the front wheels on my 225 refurbed because of curb(!) damage.
Will I have any problems with them doing it because of the tyre pressure sensors?
I am using one of the mobile companies that come to you to do the repair.

Thanks

I can't see why not. It depends on whether they're taking the tyres off or not. If they are, they just need to be aware of them and to be carefull!!!

Is the scuff on the rim or on the outside alloy itself?

It is close to the tyre, but I have had a local company have a look (Chips Away) and they think they should be able to it without removing the tyre.
It isn't too bad but there is exposed alloy which needs attention.

On another point, is it OK to put a 225 on axle stands?
If so what points can be used?

They prefer to have just the wheel rather than the whole car!

His Alloys looked crap after a few months. They faded and the paint flaked away.
