Wheels...

Hello to all Octavia VRS owners and BRISKODA members. A great site!

I have just bought a VRS and in need of some input. It's an '02 with 84k on the clock but been dealer serviced every 10k. The wheels are a bit scuffed and tired so I don't know if I should re-furb them, or take the plunge and add some new 18" alloys. Any recommendations of what suits the car best and is there any issues with clearance etc? Apologies if this is a thread that's been started before! Cheers.

Actually, just looking out the window and the wheels do look pretty good! (although in need of a refurb). Can anyone recommend an alloy wheel refurbisher in East Sussex? Preferably mobile as I can't have the car off the road for a week while I send them away. Cheers!
