lol its the buyers problem, if they arent selling them as a car wheel then they cant be held responsible for the buyer putting them on one, its like me buying some garden hose and using it for fuel line, then when it melts going to bunnings and saying, hey, you sold me this hose knowing full well that if i used it on my car it would fail... but meh, someone try them and see...

I have been around a long time, if I bought race tyres nobody ever asked if they were for a race car they just assumed that they were. If I bought retreads nobody ever pointed out the lowered speed ratings.
I bet I could buy a set of off road tyres and wheels for Mini without any questions being asked. (I also know Tempe tyres)

just like any business, tempe are there to make money, that is all. im sure a few of you all saw that thing on a current affair about tyre places selling tyres that were out of date. they have obviously seen a market for these wheels and tyres, so if they can make money then they will sell them.

It is the vehicle owners' responsibilty to contact relevant road and traffic authorities prior to the modifications being undertaken to see if they are permitted. Tempe Tyres is not liable for any legal issues that may arrise with the purchase and installation of wheels and / or tyres.

Tiny, you are a proper so and so. I wont write exactly what because I will probably get banned.

But for heavens sake, are you really that stupid????


Meeni, you are on the ball.
Tiny, you have at least a few years of "wisdom" and knowledge over Meeni, surely you can put it to practice. Or does tyre fitting not include general knowledge?

Sean has gained an awful lot of wisdom in the last few years, willy's sentiment has been repeated quite a lot lately
