Q. Can we get club discounts
If your club secretary contacts us we can look at offering club promotions and discounts depending on volume, contact us via our Sales Enquiry Form for further information.

How about seeing we can get some discount if enough people are up for it.  I would buy some of those.  Seem like the best i've seen so far

Did you fit them yourself?

Yes fitted them myself  ;) took me a couple of hours because i removed each wheel to fit (not necessary)so i could clean and wax the inside of my rims and clean calipers 8) would take about an hour if fitting them on fixed rim and using a 12v inflater

I can give tips if anyone needs any help  :thumb:

Had a look at their installation video but I don't have the right equipment or confidence to do them myself.

Got a guy coming from eTyres to fit them, £ 70 supplied and fitted, hopefully Saturday.

Yeah i saw that you could have etyres fit them and ive used them in the past for tyres, they did a nice job too but I wanted the satisfaction of doing them myself and giving the rims and callipers a good clean while i was there  ;D

My set didn't arrive with the eTyres guy on Saturday but he thinks they'll arrive tomorrow and he will fit them then.

I can post a pic once they're done unless Trooper posts one for you before then.

Where did you get the alloy 25mm pipe as that looks better than a bung.
