Default Wheel refurb Kent

Can anyone recommend a place in Kent to get my wheels refurbed?

I'm in Tunbridge Wells, but happy to travel an hour or so if needs be.

My car came with standard V2's, they're pretty kerbed on the passenger side, and starting to corrode so i'm going to bite the bullet and get them done.

Cheers

Also been looking at this myself.
Place in Crawley does a similar process as Lepsons, but doesn't charge to remove the tyre or repair from what I can see (and certainly, the online quote suggested that.

http://www.wheelworksuk.co.uk/ - Only 35 mins from you.

No idea how good they are though. I'm still researching whether to just have them painted or powder-coated at this point - so many differing opinions on what's better!

I've used Wheel Works in Crawley in the past. Was very happy with the results.
