I've bought stuff from them in the past, no problems. Haven't bought wheels though, you are the only one who can decide if price etc is good.

They are usually pretty good to deal with, but sometimes you need to give them a ring to push them along a little. Be sure to insist on a Tracking Number for your freight, they generally use TNT.

Only thing i've bought from them was adjustable suspension bits. Didn't have any hassles with them and the items arrived in under 2 weeks.

I have bought 2 sets of wheels & tyres from them, had good service, as GT mowog mentions, you will have to ask for the tracking number.

I have got wheels annd tyres from them and the service was great, ordered and paid on a Thursday and wheels arrived the folowing Tuesday

and duty.

It's actually Goods (>$1000) + Duty then the GST is Calculated on that.

Ok, thanks guys.

I have never had any thing but delays and stuff ups from them and only ever ordered from them while I am in Netherlands.

It got to the point that for several critical items I have had Lindsay Siebler at Minis Plus and Graham Russell at Russell Engineering to send some stuff over to me here.

I always use Australian Mini suppliers when in Australia to ensure that they are there when I really need them.

cheers
