Do you have to pay a excess if you make a claim?..........£90 would get you two refurbishments in the three years, how many times have you paid for repairs in the past three years?...do the maths Sara

no excess and ive never had alloy wheels so no idea how often they might need repairing but im guessing on a GT it would be expensive

for only £99 it a pretty good deal, in 3 years with my last car on 19"... I kerbed it about 2 or 3 times... plus lots of chips came out from stones etc.
If you're really picky about your car looking 100% then get it... I was quoted £55 each wheel a few years back - you could make money by putting on a fellow roc's wheel to get it fixed cheap for them, then charge 'em £30

everyone's a winner.
