I've looked most places and I don't reckon you'll get a better price than our Norn Iron guys, especially if you get a group buy going.
Haggle hard ladies.
I'll even dance for them naked without my suicide vest.  :laugh:
@Alex: Let me do the bargaining. I am pretty adept.  :smug:
I shall leave it in your capable hands Asker. Remember to aim for buy one get one free.  :grin:

I think Jim is on board. Try and convince him even more at GTI International.
I really want those CS5s.

What do you think of these?

@Neil. No booze for me during the week. Only pills, but only prescribed ones for the pain in my heart. :kiss: Actually it is the shoulder, but we'll keep that quiet and get the gossip going.  :laugh:

So, so far it's AGB, Jimmymature and am1w for the BBS CH5s.
That's 3 sets if my maths is correct. I'll ask for a 12% discount, they'll offer 6% and then we'll settle for 8%. Pies in the sky, I know.

Where do you hail from and when were you thinking of going? I could keep you company for Saturday. Must be back home that evening. Can't drive there due to bad shoulder.
But I am definitely going next year.

Tyre is still OK - I thought it was going to need replacing but they say OK!) but wheel has a nasty edge to it now - so annoyed but I will get over it - luckily its on the edge rather than on the face of the wheel.

I'd love some of those alloys but have just forked out for our summer holiday so haven't got any spare £s :(  Would love the though - they do look verrrrrrry nice  :kiss:

@Adrian.

Small mercies. I bet you wish it was the other way around. Heartbreaking and sickening. Not to worry, the wheel can get fixed and it will be as good as new.

I was traumatised at the weekend when I hit two massive unavoidable craters. But lady luck shone on me. Third time lucky? I doubt it.

Good thing about a dicky shoulder is that holidays are out. So a part of the cash will go on the new wheels.
I am going to try to get a discount for us. The recession might bode well for a favourable outcome.

@Hurdy.
Good taste triumphs, sir and you definitely have excellent taste. Thank you.
Yes, the are the pick of the crop merging bling and style perfectly. Are you going to shod your new car with them? We could call ourselves the CS gas brigade! :grin:

CS5 SILVER: http://www.performancealloys.com/wheel-details.aspx?ID=2065
CS5 BLACK: http://www.performancealloys.com/wheel-details.aspx?ID=2067
CS5 ANTHRACITE: http://www.performancealloys.com/wheel-details.aspx?ID=2066

Your recommendations for Tornado Red, Black and Silver cars please would be appreciated.

I am partial to the Silver and so is AGB for his black car. Jimmymature prefers the Anthracite for his silver car.
