Default PFF7 replica company prices!

Right guys last time i post this thread as all the great replies you all wrote got lost when SN went down the other night.

You know who you are! these are the final prices i was given with a 225/40/18 toyo p1 s tyre, delivery is to germany. there is quite a difference and surly the wheels come from one main supllier??

Ive gone for the anthracite 4-5 weeks wait!!

who would you go with (this is inc vat):

midland wheels 695+45p&p (any catch here?)

revolution 825+120p&p!!!

wheelbase 760+50p&p

scoobybits 695(not inc vat)+30ishp&p (so about 850 inc vat)

they all had good service on the phone just need to pick one. is the choice as obvious as it looks!!

cheers guys

I've just done a search, and yes, the posts seem to be missing.

OK, the anthracite are actually gun-metal, much darker, see B0dski for images, or search the members gallery.

Wheelbase did mine for £695 + £20 (next day) delivery. Includes race-style nuts and locking wheel nuts. Silver with Toyo T1-S.

Good service, not the dare ones, which people have reported problems with.

Fantasic, cheers bodski.

i think i may be using them myself as they are cheaper than the other companies by a good 170 quid or so. plus all wheels are the same at the end of the day from these suppliiers! going to ring them tomorrow and book some and then sit and wait!!
unless i get a top offer before then! lol

I think wheelbase have some on ebay too dont they?
midland wheels on the phone were fine to me and the cheapest, but as u point out, customer service is a biggy!

I agree Keith and the lads at Revolution offer great customer service and are on the ball, but to be honest i found Midland to be just as good, maybe they take there time if u email them through Ebay, but whats wrong with getting on the blower to them and actually speaking to someone ???

Got mine from Midland, with the group buy that Tasbersley started.

Im surprised they haven't replied to you, did you phone them?

I phoned them a few weeks after the group buy was finished, but they still honoured the price, i was well chuffed.

Slightly off topic,as the thread got closed i never got the chance to say thanks to Tas and Midland, so if you are ever reading, cheers.

Anyway back on topic,Midland were well cheaper than anybody else for the same wheels(Rota Redlines).

Hope you find the deal that's right for you.

If you look in the group buy section there are a few people interested in some PFF7 reps. Might be worth asking about a group buy from Midland?

Where's that?

I'll need some tyres soon, might be cheaper to sell the current setup and get those.
