Wheelsandmore’s work ethic is seen by their work rate. The aftermarket tuner has released some pictures of the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S-model. This model is the replacement of the AMG Performance package. The S-Model trim gives the car more stature when you look at it. Before Wheelsandmore got their hands on this car, the 5.5 litre V8 engine gave the car 577 horsepower. With 590 Nm of torque, this car definitely keeps up in the performance arena

Wheelsandmore have upped the ante and now the output has gone up to 700 horsepower and razor-sharp 811 Nm of torque. Wheelsandmore achieved this by adding a new exhaust system and a CRP-F1 package kit.

We love the finish on the alloy wheels, which have a matt black finish which really highlights the orange brake callipers. These matt black custom alloys also make a superb contrast to the fashionable white bodywork.

If you like this bespoke finish on this Mercedes and you are looking for something similar, call us on 0845 370 8881 and discuss your alloy wheel refurbishment options with our trained technicians.

Ajet-black Ferrari is definitely a sight to see but when you put gold into the mix, it definitely takes off. You will see on-line Ferrari 458 Italia alloys which are unique because it has not gone for the traditional red coat of Rosso Corsa (as beautiful as it is). The Ferrari 458 Italia ADV.1 Wheels worked on this car to put ADV5TS five-spoke matte alloy wheels in black. These alloys are track-specification which gives the car even more of that supercar edge that you expect from Ferrari. The wheels are given the gold effect with a bronze outer rim which can clearly be seen on the 458 Italia.

Do you like the gold finish on alloy wheels? Our skilled technicians can finish your alloys in gold. Check out our latest gold finishes here below. If you are looking for this kind of look, give us a call on 0845 370 8881 and we will be happy to give a quote!

We are always delighted to show you our latest work and we have been particularly pleased with these latest alloy wheels with red rim bands.

Rim bands are bands made from silicone rubber which are fitted around the circumference of the rim. Not only do they help protect the outer lip of the alloy from getting scratched but they also add style to your alloy wheels.

Our latest customer brought his Jaguar XJ alloy wheels to our London Alloy Wheel Refurbishment Centre to be refurbished.  Have a look at these pictures and you will agree with us they look stunning with red rim bands.

These Jaguar alloys wheels have been finished with a grey painted finish and once they dried the red rim band was carefully fitted by our tyre fitter Jo. After been carefully inspected, the alloys are ready to be re-fitted to the customers car. Re-valve, balance and refitting services are FREE and all part of the service if you book your alloys in at Diamond Alloys..

Tyres on a SUV are critical to the driving experience and performance of the car whether you are at the helm of a G-Wagon or a Range Rover. Take a look at some of the top choices for SUV tyres if you are looking to supercharge the performance of your luxury SUV:

1) Continental Cross Contact L X 20 Eco Plus
These tyres are affordable and they are also durable during all types of weather such as snow and rain. These tyres also do well on dry terrain because of how they were manufactured. If you are looking for SUV tyres that will be workhorses for your car, these Continentals are the ones to choose.

2) Michelin L T X ms2
There is nothing like a set of tyres from Michelin and the LTX ms2 are fantastic examples of craftsmanship. Due to this, you get what you pay for which is why these tyres have a higher price tag compared to rivals. They are known for being excellent tyres for all seasons which is ideal for drivers who live in places where the weather changes frequently.

3) Kumho S A T Road Venture K L 61
These tyres are budget options that can deal with the basics of SUV driving. You shouldn’t expect them to do well in aggressive conditions; however they can handle terrain like sand and mud. The top feature about these tyres is they are known for their long lifespan so if you are looking for SUV tyres that can go the distance, Kumho is the brand to choose.

4) Cooper Discoverer AT 3
These are the tyres to choose if you want tyres that are ideal for off-road driving. This would suit SUV drivers who want to be off-road for most of the time which is why Cooper manufactured them for aggressive driving off-road.

5) Goodyear Wrangler M T R
Road conditions that are hard and extreme can be tackled by Goodyear. These tyres can be used in most driving conditions but they truly shine when they are used off road in the toughest conditions.

These SUV tyres offer something fresh and new for drivers who want to give their luxury SUVs the platform they need to perform to the highest level. Choosing the right tyres is important for the best driving experience – pick the ones that suit you from this list.

1. How long have you been working for Diamond Alloys?

I just joined the Diamond Alloys customer service team a few months ago, but already feel part of the team.

2. What did you do before you joined Diamond Alloys?

Before joining Diamond Alloys I worked for another company within our group. I was there for over 3 years and have brought with me lots of experience with cars and a very high level of customer service. It was an exciting new challenge for me and I look forward to meeting and greeting new clients.

3. What do you do?

My main role here is to manage the day to day running of the office and to offer exemplary service to all our customers. This involves offering advice on the services we offer and what is best for their cars in addition to updating customers on when their refurbishment will be completed.

4. What makes a great customer service?

Dealing with customers straight away, answering any questions and ensuring they get the finish they want. We like to offer continuity of service so always back up a phone call enquiry with a quote by email in addition to confirming when wheels have arrived with a confirmation of the date we expect the job to finish. It is also my pleasure to help customers with our additional services, like sourcing new tyres or organising a full car valet. I personally try to speak to my customers with a happy confident tone so I can put the customer at ease and help with their enquiry.

5. What do you enjoy about working in customer service?

Customer satisfaction! It is always so lovely to get good customer feedback and to hear that they are so pleased with the work that has been carried out on their wheels. It is especially great when they tell us they will be recommending Diamond Alloys to others. I also love to get pictures from customers to show their new wheels on their cars!

6. What’s the best part of your day?
My days at Diamond Alloys are always good ones, even when we are extremely busy…… I enjoy it!

7. What unique and successful approaches are used to improve continuously your customer service?

We have meetings in the morning where all customers bookings are discussed with each head of department so I am able to be updated and advise customers when their wheels will be completed or in the event that there may be a delay of completion, for example if we find a problem with the wheel like a crack or a dent. We are always looking at other ways to ensure that the customers experience with Diamond Alloys is a good one and the service that they receive is second to none!

8. What are the common questions customers ask about?
The most common questions that customers ask are, What is our turnaround time? We offer a 3 day turnaround which is very good considering that the wheels are put through a full process in order to have them looking as close to new as possible!…

Are we able to repair cracks in alloys or do we just refurbish alloys? which of course we are able to! ……. We also repair dents to alloys!

Do we balance the wheels after the tyres are fitted?… Which again is something we do, in fact we offer a Free tyre removal service, free re-valve, balancing and re-fit and ALSO a 12 month warranty for the paint and lacquer!

9. Which is the most popular Diamond Alloys service?

The most popular Diamond Alloys alloy wheel repair service would have to be Diamond Cutting as there are not many companies that offer this service. It is a specialist technique and a special machine is required.

10. What motivates you to do a good job?

I am very much a self- motivated person so will always ensure that whatever I do is done to the best of my ability. Diamond Alloys is a fairly newly business and to be part also of watching this company grow and develop is VERY exciting!

11. What is it like working in a male dominated environment?

*Laughs* It’s Every Girls Dream?! haha…. As you can imagine there is a lot of banter!… They are all really lovely guys and are really nice to work with, so I guess I am lucky!

12. If you could drive any car, where would you drive it if it was yours for the weekend and who would be sitting next to you?

I would drive the Bentley GTC Convertible in white and to be honest whilst driving that vehicle I don’t think I would be to fussed if I had anyone in there with me, the car is enough in itself!

13. What do you do in your spare time?
I have a 2 year old daughter so I don’t really get much spare time as that’s a full time job alone!… However, I do try and find the time to have friends over one or two evenings a week for a girlie catch up when Lil Miss is sleeping! I also enjoy keeping fit and Irish Dance on Monday and Wednesday evenings.

14. What would you like to be doing this time next year?
Hopefully offering customers even more specialist services……..watch this space!

Canadian tuning specialist SR Auto Group decided to choose the 2013 Mercedes ML 550as the latest car to customise. The specialist took a diverse approach by using body parts from Brabus and PUR wheels to give this Mercedes style and flair. The details are electric from the additional vents on the front of the car and a rear diffuser which was painted in glossy Anthracite paint. The PUR 9INE alloys stand out from the crowd with their 22” stature and their brushed silver and gloss anthracite hue. These changes by SR Auto Group signal the tuner’s attempt to give the ML550 aggressive styling that would make it appeal to style-oriented drivers and enthusiasts who love SUV, off-road vehicles.

At Diamond Alloys we are well equipped to offer you a great bespoke alloy wheel refurbishment. Get this kind of look with a Diamond Cut finish, a service we specialise in, give us a call on 0845 370 8881
