I got a set of ACIII wheels from Team 3 after Chris & Lee. In total including all of the UK taxes it came to £1150. I went for 17" with unpolished centres. The fake knock-off spinners are the best I've seen. Pics in my gallery.

Great quality product, sensible prices, nice people to deal with. Phone them though, don't bother with email

I'll be here, probably in the garage..........

If I need two sets of wheels, and you want a set perhaps we have a group buy idea going ie discounts?

Cheers,

Thanks for that, did the yanks arrange shipping etc?

What wheel widths and offsets did you specify as your , Chris, and Lee's Ak's should be exactly the same as mine.

Pm me if you prefer to discuss details off forum. ( I seem to haijacked the thread!)

Cheers,

Tony

Thanks for that. I've been doing the sums and looks like Team 111 are the way to go. Your wheels would have cost £1442 from Image, you saved approaching £300 buying from the USA whilst for my preferred style the Image price is £1271 against the £762 from Team 111. Add on say 25% customs and VAT and the package from the USA still comes out well under a grand. The savings can go to buying a tyre or two.

Cheers,

Tony

You've been here long enough to know better than to ask stupid questions like that mate.

Does the tent fit?

Crendon boot is small too, not sure how I'm going to get all my shoes and handbags in for the trip.........
