Our 2012 B Max has reached the point where the wheels need a refurb. The front tyres require inflating every 10-14 days. I have looked at new Ford wheels but at £162 each they seem expensive.
Any ideas guys?

Try a local car breakers ?
They sometimes have decent wheels in stock at a fair price. Or even eBay or Amazon.

My local Ford service centre(not a dealer of new Ford cars but retains Ford badging) regularly seems to bring in one of those mobile alloy wheel refurbishers with his own van for customers vehicles. By the frequency of their visits, I would say they do a good job?

Had mine powder coated for £40 per wheel.

My local tyre dealer just put some sealant under the valve seats and that seemed to fix the issue. Not sure how long it will last as I sold the car 8 months later.
