I enquired with this guy. They are genuine. The aussie dealer is too dear. This guy said he would ship.

They are Midland wheels by the looks of them and the description. I can do those 15 x 8 for $850/set. And I'll even throw in wheel nuts  Have them here in August, you need to confirm with me by the end of this month if you want a set.

Either Smcka or arrange your own freight with www.transglobal.co.uk. Using some estimated sizes I reakon you could get 5 rims delivered to your door for 140 pounds. Easier to go with Smcka though......

Remember when buying stuff from the uk you do not have to pay their GST known as VAT which is a rate of 17.5%. So if the uk amount was 99 pounds, you can knock off 17.5 pounds off that. We brought some fake porsche wheels for our Kombi from midland wheels recently and delivered the cost was about $830.00 AUD which was pretty decent and fell below the Australian Import duties amount of $1000.

VAT is now 20%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In the past I know people who have asked suppliers to either split consignments or just change the invoice amount to avoid duties.

Why don't you guys do a group purchase, get discount and save freight at the same time.

Is that cos they don't make another offset or you just don't bring them in?

I assume that only the pot stirring, Stephen vs Rob posts are being deleted and rightly so.
I still have not decided on my final wheel choice Danny plus I could not really work out who does the "genuine" minilites these days as there are so many copies. After the last bashing I took on RsMotorsport I sort of gave up caring. I should have the suspension bolted up for a trial fit soon so will know the actual offset(s) I require. Once I know that I will be in a much better position to make a decision.
