    my cousin went there ,and there was a S4 there gettn rims.they wouldnt clear the big calipers so they got the angle grinder out and grinded the caliper a bit. .true story.

    they are very cheap,but bounce off all of those tyre places up and down arncliffe/tempe and im sure you will get a awesome deal.

    also check the rims you will buy for weight ratings are correct for your car.as ive seen a few rims sold by them without any rating.great for ur insurance co if anythng ever happens.

    LOL I wouldn't go there, I find that they are dodgey. Go in there look at some rims get the rims and then come out with your guards flared, springs chopped and half of your brakes out cause they weren't able to fit.
    I'm soo euro even my missus is shaved...

    The shop in brookvale is goodspanner, i have bought my last two sets of tyres from there and have been very happy with the price and service.

    DONT go to tempe! They are so rough there. A mate of mine bought a set of chrome 20s from there for his commodore. They charged him $80 for guard rolling and just bashed his guard lip flat with a rubber mallet, totally cracking the paint along the edge.
