For full chemical strip, powder coat and bake UK prices vary around £100 per wheel, as a target for you. Most Tyre depot can do a pretty good geometry check, - try to pick a smart professional looking one which should be around £50 at a basic level. - as I posted before you need to check your steering rack first.
Blimey £100 a wheel Tim?Do Harrods do a collection and delivery service?

355 Wheels are Magnesium are they not? If so you need someone who can deal with those - they need to be careful with them.
As to the alignment, if you can find a place that has Hunter laser alignment equipment you won't go too far wrong.
Magnesium wheels are a lot more sensitive and require a skilled refurbisher, where not talking 'alloys' here Rod!Blimey £100 a wheel Tim?
Because they are hydroscopic (take on water) once you have a scrape you must get them repaired, otherwise you will get all your paint peeling off like this!
The last picture is of an attempted quick repair a customer had done, as you can see the paint just peels straight off!
Wow.. see your point
Better keep an eye on mine now
