Hey Paul, I'm not sure but perhaps one of our forum vendors may be able to help? Either that or perhaps even one of the long standing members may chime in and offer to help?

Hope you get it sorted either way.....good luck

hi Richard, yes I have tried contacting them . They work out quite expensive . £2060 with a set of Toyo tyres . Got a quote in today for £1832.60 . But I have seen them in the US for approx equivalent of £1148.26 with Toyo tyres . So I was hoping to to import a set direct from a company in the US . I have just been made aware that TSW is related to the Yokahama brand . . . so will probably get a set of Yokahama Advan Sport tyres on them if the price is right . I spoke to one of my contacts and he said TSW UK quoted him £350 for shipping charges within the price of £2060. The Coventry Whitley Hypersilver wheel is really nice looking but again can not find a these in the UK . My other options are Zito Belair , AEZ Lascar , and Team Dynamics Equinox 2 .

Owch, that's more than my XJ40 is worth. Nice looking wheels though.

Someone should be able to give you contact info.

If you have not already done so, try a post over in the X Type section.

Best of luck.

Paul,

Take a look at these guys International Courier Services | Fast Lane International Couriers

I used them to ship some stuff UK - US with no problems and have heard good things from others.

I got a quote of £380 when I put in an estimate of what I thought the size and weight of wheels might be.

Can I have one of those beers now please Jim?
