That's not too bad really. You could possibly get them to ship two shipments, one to you and another to a friend so the duties aren't so "taxing". I've heard Keskin are quality wheels, despite the fact that they make replica wheels.

I agree, looked at a few different wheels and these ones made me grin straight away, I was planning on doing the two ahipments, they will most likely come from the UK to which I think that there is tax that you also have to pay not quite sure

I have also heard that they make replica wheels which almost put me off them, however after hearing some good comments from other dub users and looked at them first hand I was quite happy with the manufacturing quality! My only problem is that how will a stretch tyre go with taking the car through spirited drives through the National Park and Wisemans ferry so to speak

I cant see how a stretched tire would be anything but un-performance like.

so long as the stretch isnt crazy it can actually increase sidewall stiffness. Obviously sidewall stiffness can reduce comfort.

It all just depends though i guess. If u stretch a lot then maybe that can adversely effect the tyres contact patch?

I reckon big stretch looks a bit dumb anyways though.

man, 1300+shipping is sweet for a decent set of rims! go faw it!

I wasn't hopimh for anything with a crazy stretch but something that was nice, but didn't do anything wrong when I hit the twisties

Like Tim said, it may even help with cornering with reduced sidewall flex. I say "may" as this is what I've heard. The first time I've heard of stretching tyres was in drifting. If stretched tyres can stay on a car that is driven sideways most of the time, it should be able to withstand a few twisties!

Thanks all for the help I won't be getting the wheels or looking at new wheels till next year and if anyone wants to buy the 928's off me
