No, they won't be less than the first group buy, which I think was £615 including VAT and delivery to mainland UK
take it that that wouldnt include the tyres, in which case how mush are those?

Depends what you want to put on them Toyo 888's are about £450 a set.
For road use I use Kuhmos....not sure of the price but good value generally.

Nope, £639 includes UK postage and VAT
Compomotive don't supply tyres, but can arrange for them to be fitted - will be cheaper to source yourself tho through Camskill or ebay
So... anyone fancy starting a list of those who want a set, and what colour required - when it reaches 15 I'll email out the order form

Interested.........
Assuming you have no preference over the styles, what are the advantages of these over Thorneys £500 TD's?

1) They look better/worse (delete as appropriate - personal taste)
2) Bigger gaps to get your hand in to reach the dampers
Flipside is they weigh a bit more.

True - it looked too tricky with TD's so I simply took the wheels off and lowered jack so car was level and I didn't spill all the fluid!
Tip: Have watering can on standby for accidents if you are leaving wheels on

one of those garden pump up sprays is good with some diluted fairy liquid , brings up the wheels / disks nice and gentle on your hands

Hello Guys..!
I have made a post on the French forum Myspeedster.ch to know if someone would be interested.
As far as I'm concerned, I'm ok for a set (in black)
The link to my post on myspeedster.ch: http://www.myspeedst...pic.php?t=17662
It would be great if someone would be able to tell me in simple words how much it would cost for me to purchase a set and deliver it to me in France...
Thanks!

It would be £689.13 for delivery to France, that also includes UK tax, so just over €800 all in
