Hi Guys,

I am Oli, one of the Directors of Bullet Wheels,

We’ve had a few questions through Ebay from people mentioning your forum so we thought we would come take a look, and have read your comments with interest. As you are aware we are a brand new company and the “Bullet One” is our first design to hit the UK market. The company has been 18 months in the making, from finding the right supplier to adjusting the design to accommodate the measurements and spec we wanted. All our hard work came together as we received from our manufacturers the first batch of our new rims last week.

We have noticed that there are a few sceptics out there questioning the quality and finish of our wheels due to lack of feedback on Ebay. We understand you holding back and in order to put your minds at ease we will be offering 10 sets of our wheels at the special price of £325 exclusively for forum members. This offer is only available through e-bay as we want your feedback and intend to be creating wheels for you guys for a long-time to come!

We are positive that you will love these wheels but as always, just in case, you are more than welcome to return them to us if you feel they are not for you!

 Please either message us through Ebay or give us a call quoting the code

 â€˜COME ON LADS LETS HAVE THEM A LITTLE CHEAPER’

To take advantage of this exclusive offer. (First come first served!!)
 
We are on hand to answer any questions you may have so please don’t hesitate to call or PM me on here. Also if you feel like the drive or live in the South you are more than welcome to come and view the wheels yourself! We are based between Alton and Basingstoke in Hampshire.

Thanks in advance for your support and business, keep chatting about us!

Cheers,
Oli

Hi Gav,

We have sold a good number of sets now, (mostly outside of ebay) and people have been happy with the quality. At this time, we don't have any 5 lug sets, but we are looking to produce them in the future. But at this stage its hard to say how soon.

Kind Regards,
Oliver

If we get a good demand for 5 stud then its something we would definitely look into doing soon. We can order these wheels (at this specific size) with any PCD but we have to order at least 50 sets for it to be viable. These wheels are perfect for mk2 and mk1 golfs but the question is, is 15x8 with ET 17 a desirable size for mk3 gti's? If 15x8 is desireable and would sell in those quantities we could definitely produce them soon. But if you guys mostly want a larger diameter we would have to make new moulds specific to that and that would take longer to produce.

15x8 would probably sell really well!. A lot of people would prefer 16x9 or 16x8 but i would seriously consider some 15x8 if the price was right! :afro:
