anyone used this guy before?

ebay store linky

Cheapest place i can find for a set of superleggeras and some yoko rubber feet (around £460).

Anyone know of anythere cheaper?

have a look at halfords, as there is a 20% off sale on atm, or there was last time i was at work, on sets of alloys. the offers change on a tuesday, but i don't think it was today. if it was, you've got about a week before they'll stop taking pity, and refuse you the offer.

i can't remember the price of them exactly, but they should be around about the price of the ebay guy's, when you account postage on top.

you'll have a poo load more come back at halfords than with the ebay guy, if they're wrong fitment, scratched, damaged etc. ntdwm like, but wouldn't want you to get stung for the price of a pint difference.

Problem with Halfords is the staff, one of their finest said that the offset is completely unimportant, and is only used to make the wheels clear the arches

the problem with halfords is they refuse to pay decent money, so they effectively deny any intellectual capacity within their staff. i started working there when i was 17, whilst doing a levels, because i had an interest in cars, and they paid over minimum wage for 18 year olds to everyone, and at that time, the money was reasonable. we've got one lad atm, who asked me what a wheel brace was for christ's sake, and ask most of them about car parts, and you'd think you were talking swahili. your point doesnt surprise me at all mark, as everyone has to have a go, even though they don't have a clue.
now i'm there purely because staff and trade discount take up the slack in what they should be paying people. probably explains why i only work a few shifts a week too! (just making it harder for pat to get bits cheap )

at the minute, they keep pestering me to work weekends, because we have a staff where at weekends, the average age will be just over 18 maybe, and that includes the manager, and there is literally no product knowledge. i won't do it because i know who i'll end up working with!

if you want to find a serious answer, go down through the week, but make sure you get there before 5 as the evening staff are just as bad. damn yoofs! [/rant]

still, between tham and asda, they've funded a gap year, in which i built me a whole car

iirc from last night, 15" superleggys with 195/50/15's are £440 atm.

My question was very simple, they did alloys with 60° bolt/nut faces for ford and PSA 108mm's, with large centre bores designed for correctable spigot rings, the ford ones were ET45, and the PSA's had ET20's. I wanted to know why they could not supply a PSA alloy with a ford spigot ring, simple question I thought........

Went into Halfords last year for a cycle speedo for the Indy to calibrate the Fireblade Clocks. I asked the assistant if the cable could be lengthened. He didn't know so he asked his manager who said.. "No. Its fibre optic cable"

I was 99.9% certain it wasn't but didn't buy it just in case.

After doing a bit of research I went back and bought it, confident in the knowledge it wasn't fibre optic, which it wasn't.
