I'm lost for words J. ..... but I will phone up first thing Monday morning and find out what on earth is going on here, if it comes to the crunch I will buy you a set myself... this will be resolved.

Right Gentlemen I have just come off the phone to Julian, he is at a loss why the lockers have not been delivered and is going to look at his packaging for them just in case there is an issue with that.... but what we have decided is that Julian will send them all to me via TNT I should recieve these tomorrow, they will be sent to my work and I can then send them straight out to you guys on UPS. I'm going to drop the 3 of you a pm as I need your addresses

si

Just had an email from Julian about the loss of lockers etc and it seems someone in the Post office has been helping themselves, hence no deliveries !!
But he has sent out all the new stuff by recored delivery today and so fingers crossed it should all be sorted by the middle of this week

happy days

Happy Days Indeed

si, pm and my post have arrived about the same time

look out for any posties with brand new locking wheel nuts on their red post vans

mmmmm FMIC... rearrange these letters to form a well know phrase

off and ****

I have a small little devil on my right hand shoulder that looks remarkably like you saying
"go on do it, do it !! "

TBH it looks tempting but I think I may have to hold off on the decision until I have sorted out a few other bits and bobs first.
But I appreciate the offer to spend my money

Thumbs up

Julian did let me in on the groupbuy a wile ago and yesterday it was delivery day.

Another driver of our company took the wheels to holland as Julian had send them to our englisch co company.

I ordered the bronze Tarmac II in 18'' with Toyo's.

1st impression they look great i only have to wait for 3 or 4 months to put them really on the car because i'm driving on winter wheels now.

Hi Marcel,
Did you get my mail..?

If not would you do me a BIG favour and pop a wheel/tyre on your bathroom scales please..?

I'm desparately trying to find the combined weight of them and so far have drawn a blank. I'm itching to order a set but I need to know the weight..!

Cheers,
Happy New Year,
Jason

I've got mine off for a couple of months through the bad weather so I've just dropped one on the scales for you....

18" wheel plus tyre = 18kgs

Simon you're a star, I've been after the combined weight for weeks and at ~18kgs I'm more than happy to order a set tomorrow (oem 17's and RE050's weigh just over 18kgs and didn't want to go heavier)..!

Don't suppose 225/40's are going to weight much heavier than your 215/35's..!

Cheers mate..

PS Just noticed from another post that you have a Blitz R115 boost gauge (I've got the same in black.. what peak boost you getting..?

I've got a standard set up and on mine it peaks at just under 1bar as it should.... I think it's 0.98 in the text book good taste in gauges

If you get the wheels from this GB just let me know I like to keep an eye on things to make sure everything is a ok
