I know some poeple on here have bought wheels from the USA
I have bought parts from CIP1 and their service and prices are good.
freight is a major expense...

I have had parts sent by post - still expensive and takes about 3 months to arrive... !!!

If You could find someone bringing a car in
You may be able to do a deal...
finding them is the problem...

best of luck

yep decked dubby has imported a van recently , this van has a load of parts for me in it already , i would have bought a set of rims if the budget allowed me to at the time, unfortunately not so lucky. i think it will work out cheaper even with the massive shipping costs jut not by very much

Give a mob called White Glove Express a look - you can request an online quote - and I have found them half the price of the likes of FedEx and USPS.( I have not tried car parts with them but they are worth a look)

A guy called Ken Phillips runs it and is easy to deal with.
