How come people have paid when it says at the start that the groupbuy prices apply when there are 10 or more names down? This seems more of a sale than a groupbuy, and as there's been no reply from rarerims to my question re: how much of a discount on 17" Grid wheels, I think I'll pass...

i think they are letting people pay now because they sold so many sets last time. also have you tried phoning rarerims for a price on 17's?

In brief to start there are GRA, Subzero and Formula Mesh wheels available in various colours.

Right now for the details

10 orders are needed to get this rolling so let me list the deal out...

There are 3 choices of tyre... Toyo's Yokahamas or Kumho's

The normal prices for these are...
With Toyo's T1R's £899
With Kumho's £739

For the Group Buy the prices will be...........

With Toyo's T1R 215/35/18 or T1R 225/40/18 it will be £760

With yokahamas 215/35/18 or 225/40/18 it will be £740

With Kumhos 215/35/18 or 225/40/18 it will be £640

That's a set of 4 fitted and balanced
All of these come complete with wheels nuts and locks included.

Anyone wishing to purchase just the alloy with no tyre the standard price is £515 but for the GB the price will be £380 for a set.

Fantastic offer I think you will all agree.....
*Postage is not included in the price above
Just spoke to Rare Rims,

18" with 225 tyres for the new age will cost the same.

Just beware of the quality of the wheels..and make sure they are official distributors of Rota...otherwise you may regret dinking them if there are too week.

infact i have had a set of GRA and Tarmac 2(from midland wheels) which they are both the same in looks, weights and color,

the only difference is the price... just to let you know...
