    i think there all right, but mind you some of them had never seen a set of coil overs befor and didnt know what to do cuz the tyres were hitting the adjusters on the coil over, i saw one of them eye the angle grinder hahahah but got in befor they did anything, like some dudes said just dont leave your car, have a say in everything and if the wheels wont fit on your car, dont bloddy get them, they shift so many wheels per day they dont care what they have to do, and remember there not qualified, there tyre fitters!!!! any body can fit tyres

    OK so after reading all these posts about Tempe tyres you guys have scared me haha

    I am thinking about getting a set of these...

    http://www.tempetyres.com.au/product...t=&part_no=357



    But im wondering, if i do...maybe I should just pick them up with tyres fitted and go elsewhere (someone I trust ) to get them fitted and balanced. What do you guys reckon?

    Ive heard both bad and good things about them...so i dunno?

    Better still buy the wheels and get decent tyres/balance elsewhere!

    Yeah was thinking that, just not sure how much they would knock off the price just for the wheels, worth asking though! What would be a decent tyre (Not too exe, am sick of paying $450 a corner for Contis) you reckon?

    I have had Sumitomo HTRZ2's and i reckon theyre a top tyre. They lasted me nearly 60,000k.

    So got my wheels, yeah Tempe Tyres is a manic place...looks dodgy as haha

    But some of the best curries Ive had have been from the dodgiest looking place, wonder if that works for wheels

    I got them fitted, balanced, aligned elsewhere...avoided the angle grinders

    I am very displeased with them, been there only twice and walked out very dissapointed both times,
    just the service is terrible, i rang up and asked for an item, said they had it, drove 2 hours through traffic and arrived only for them to tell me "sorry we dont stock this item"

    second time was basically the same thing

    asked for a set of wheels for a certain car, drove to collect and "oh sorry we dont have your studd pattern"

    after ringing up and confirming,
    so terrible,
    need to lower my car but not sure if i risk it again by going there
