Baught from them, they were excellent. One year ago 18" Rims with tyres for $1500 i think with lock nuts. St george tyres arent bad either, way cheaper them tempe, not quiet as much range. VERY fast response too via email.

Usually when your keen on buying something though, you ring up, order them (like i did) and pay via credit card or another alternative and they'll send them out to you. Not many genuine buyers purchase items via email.

Think you'll find too when you pay for them they send you down a fax, you fill it in, sign it etc etc, and thats your security for the purchase.

That's a good point, they are very cheap and usually any place that's far cheaper than the rest is quite busy. They may also have less staff than comparable organisations to keep costs down =)

Pump them with email or better yet call them, they've gotta answer the phone =D

Try Big O-Tyres. I was pleasantly surprised by helpful they were with trial fitting rims on my car, very patients with me while im ummmed and erred over the decision. No pressure at all.

Good bunch of ppl too, and have a good range of bling rims, racey rims and quality rims. I had no idea if i got a good price, until i did some howework weeks after, and it turns out they were well priced to boot :)

Dont know if thats indicative of the service they normally provide, or i got lucky, but worth a try. ( i will add that they were recommended by a friend who rang them to say i was swingign by...so that may have put their mind at ease that i was walkign off with rims and they probably werent too stressed with me walkign away having wasted their time)

I dont live in Sydney so they sent my rims out. One they sent me was the wrong one (dunno how they could send me 3 the same and one wrong but anyway) It was a bit of a hassel trying to sort it out. If you have any trouble just make sure you get their name and always ask for them next time you ring.

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
