No worries mate the reason it says 'in production' is because I would like to put a link to the shop so people can check up on the product but because they arent ready yet I cant :)

I'll keep this thread updated with progress, should have them done this week all being well :thumleft:

I also thought i would be cheeky and ask if any extra discount would be added as there are over 10 more people then the amount needed for 20%! :clown:


So does that mean the discount level has gone up for this group buy? ;) your new link offers 25% at these interest levels ;)

I'll honour that yes the new group buy rules are different from this one but seeing as though I havent started invoicing people yet I'll allow 25% off

So thats £120 per set plus shipping costs :thumleft:

Bob,

What are you doing to fill the arch extensions? Are you using standard size alloys with spacers or are you running larger rims with different offsets?

Just seems that most people who race use standard size wheels like I do.

Cheers

I am using 16 x 10 on the rear and 16 x 8 on the front. Doing sprints and hill climbs.
I am using 16" so I can get the car very low to the ground.

Had the stock wheels last year and the rear just had no grip so had to go bigger this year

With them being 10 and 8 does this mean you will get them to fill the arches? Do they have special offsets to get them nice and wide?

I must admit mine struggles for grip at times so thinking of upgrading to 16's when the tyres wear out.

They are split rims and the inside will have 1/2" clearence to the coilovers, just going to flair out the arches to clear.
