Help needed.

Serjames · 02-21-2008, 03:36 PM

Chaps, and chapesses, had a request from one of our US collegues and wondered if you could help....

see below.

"I am looking for a local UK dealer to buy HRE or luxury rims for a friends 997. Do you know of any high class/luxury rim shops in the Great UK? Any locations, store names, websites, or even numbers would be a ridiculous help."

Best

There's South Coast Wheels in southampton - do a google search or yell.com

That's a odd request given that he'd have to pay the VAT and also the exhorbitant shipping costs. His looking for a "local UK dealer" somewhat implies he is wanting to purchase the rims for a friend already in the UK.

Doc, I tried what you suggested but other than rattling the windows and making myself hoarse, nothing happened. My neighbors are beginning wonder about me.
