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.

    • Nah, they'll do it without a receipt, tell em roughly when it was, that it was cash, youll likely only get store credit, but that gets you some dollars towards the newer better shovel, or other item you need/want later.   Still take it back and have a crack at returning it.
    • Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.
    • That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!
    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
