Default Compomotive issue

Hi everyone
Has anyone tried to order any compomotive alloys direct from them as have been trying to order some TH2's for over a year now with no luck whatsoever, I have never had this problem in the past but for some reason I always get the excuse of we are not doing any blanks for that wheel on there next order

Your comments and any ideas where I can get some would be appreciated.
Thanks

I think you will find they are still trading unless they have shut down in the last 2 weeks
It's just a case of they are not giving the customer service they used to.
They don't make the blanks themselves anymore they sub it out t someone else.

Had a look at their website and you're right, my mistake!

It probably best to ring them as they are a bit shy when it comes to answering there emails via there website.
Going to ring them myself tmrw 're the TH2"S I am after.

I got a reply, they dont have the wheels that I want tho (MO6) and dont have anything in the size and offset I need - 17x8 et30 5x114. Sais they have MO5, which in my opinion is a gash looking wheel
I'm getting some team dynamics, cheaper, readily available, lighter and the options are a lot better (i.e. exact offset, stud pattern, colours)
got quoted £1500 for 12 pro race 1.2 in size mensioned above. No brainer for me
sorry if you're looking for a single replacement to complete a set or something like that, sounds like you're out of luck
Rota do a similar style wheel to the TH2 - https://www.rotashop.co.uk/rota-recc...1_23819554.htm

Just found out that there is a minimum order quantity of 6 sets which will take 4-8 weeks but the good thing is that you can have any pcd or offset because when they are made they are just what they call a blank casting.unless there are 5 others who want a set then I am **** out of lick and will have to look at another wheel.

Probably about £750 for a set.
