Exclamation

Guys, it's unbelievable but i have to revive this thread, as i STILL couldnt get that damn replacement wheel i needed so despretaley.

I was already in contact with Dave Austin and all seemed good, but when i wanted to place my order he suddenly didn't reply anymore. I also wrote to some other wheelcenters i found online, such as Customwheelsdirect or IWCMotorsports but none of them even replied to my inquiry.

I ended up driving on winter tires throughout the whole summer, ultimately destroying those pricey rubbers within merely one year (they're just not meant to be driven on hot roads).

To avoid this from happening again coming season, i raise the stakes now:

Whoever can hook me up with a wheelshop that gets me two custom drilled Torque Thrusts (as per the specs i posted before) gets a nice reward.

I work in the Swiss watch industry and i'll send a brandnew quality Swiss Made wristwatch FOR FREE, to anyone who can get me in touch with the shop that is capable and willing to send me the two wheels i need.


All the tips and advice i got so far were really appreciated. Unfortunately i still couldn't get those wheels and so i really really hope it works this time.

Thanks again to JerseyJames, who ultimately made this possible.

And also thanks to all others here who tried to help me. You guys are just awesome! One big cool HHR family!!!

...Ticking away the moments
That make up a dull day
Fritter and waste the hours
In an off-hand way ...
