cfoster Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 Just seen these replica Volks on my350z.com and wondered if there were any suppliers in the UK that have these? Think they look awesome!! http://my350z.com/forum/wheels-and-tire ... -19-a.html IMO this Z looks perfect in every way! Chris Quote
rich5259 Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 Single exit exhaust doesn't look good with a full width bumper tuck The wheels go well with the car, but he needs blue calipers IMHO Quote
maz0 Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 I like them a lot. Lots of bitching on their regarding the fact their replicas, quite funny tbh. Quote
yokomo Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 i like em ,colours not my taste but youve just added another one to my wheel choice list ! Quote
Pimm Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 Love the wheels needs to get rid of the orange bulbs for the silvertec ones Quote
buster Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 must just be me but i think the wheel stick out the arches to much.... apart from that it look wicked. Quote
Ian Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 Single exit exhaust doesn't look good with a full width bumper tuck The wheels go well with the car, but he needs blue calipers IMHO Bumper tucks were invented for the single exit Bumper tucks don't look right on anything but single exits. Also, what other kind of bumper tuck is there than the full width one? Quote
ChrisUUC Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 Ive been in talks with DTMAutobody a retailer in America thats selling these. He tells me that shipment to Northern Ireland/uk and Ireland is no problem. I loved these wheels and have great sizes and offsets in them. I got a qoute for 19's with 9" on the front and 10.5 on the rear with +12 all round (+22 doesnt clear brembos) and thats shipped with insurance for £1050. He tells me I might not need arch work but im unsure. Contact him on 350zmotoring, sound guy and has loads in stock in various colours for instant shipment. Good price and at least half the value of proper volks Could also someone explain to me how the tucked bumper loook is achieved. Thanks Quote
UNABASHED Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 they look verrryyy nice and very cheap price! Not too sure about the monster truck look with them sticking out so far though... Group buy anyone? Quote

Thanks Excelllent to hear that mate, wasnt sure on the actual cost of them but worked out shipping would've been around $400ish if I organised it myself via a mate house in Florida and USPS. Is he on my350z.com as well? $1050 sounds wicked!! Will be going for zero offset though!! Quote

What about when showing off the pretty Nismo backbox? I think tucks are fine, then. Also, what other kind of bumper tuck is there than the full width one? Hmm, was wondering the same thing.

captain Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 What's wrong with these available in UK for £850 plus?? Your £1050 will be a lot more once duty and tax are applied. Quote

In regards to duty/import tax a friend of mine recently got a set imported from the states and said it wasnt to bad ... nothing like he expected. And id happily pay it for these wheels as its a bargin compared to similar wheels on the market. Quote

bhavin85 Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 DO IT!! I love the TE37's if I could afford another set of wheels they would be the TE37's in Bronze everytime! I often wondered why no one had copied the TE37's before...we should try and get one of the traders on here to become retailers for that wheel...they would make a killing! Quote
cfoster Posted April 16, 2010 Author Posted April 16, 2010 Just got a price from the chap in the states and works out that shipping to Florida it comes to $1060, around £659. Once the exchange rate gets better (predicting after the election) then they will be even cheaper! Far far cheaper than the real deal ones but also a fair bit heavier, which to be honest not bothered about! I've calculated shipping from Florida to UK for them and it works out at $400, so $1460, just need to find £600 for tyres!!!! Quote
Digsy Posted April 16, 2010 Posted April 16, 2010 As if by magic... viewtopic.php?f=115&t=35146&view=unread#unread Quote
ChrisUUC Posted April 16, 2010 Posted April 16, 2010 Bit pricey in my opinion. $1679.00 USD shipped to the UK. Price does not include taxes and duties The price in dollars I got was around $1490 not including taxes. cfoster - who did you get that price with ... id be up for getting two sets delivered if you fancied it ... see what price they would do it for? Quote
cfoster Posted April 16, 2010 Author Posted April 16, 2010 Chris - I got a quote for shipping via USPS for $199 per 2 wheels, so 2 seperate parcels = $400, plus the $1060 so indeed $1460. I know of someone else who may be interested in a set so thats 3 sets. I'd need to wait a month or 2 though to sort monies out as dont want to put them on credit card! Quote
bhavin85 Posted April 16, 2010 Posted April 16, 2010 If they do the 19's in Flat bronze ill probably be up for a set! Quote
