I bought my work equips from them - excellent service but carriage is quite dear and then theres import duty and vat :-(

RBWheels and JDMAutohouse are the same people but youll usually find that the ebay price is cheaper - better still offer them about a 1/3 off the ebay priceusing "make offer" and you should get them cheaper again :-)

Find the exact size of the wheels and tyres that are standard then enter them in on the left on website below and then if you find a set your interested in eneter the details on right - that way you can be sure they will/maybe able to fit. Stuff that is too close to suspension can usually be fixed with spacers as long as that doesnt push them too far out beyound wheel arch. Wheels that are too big in circumfrance may be able to be fixed with a lower profile tyre but be careful that the tyre you pick to make it fit actually exists as some sizes that are recommended are "fictional" LOL
