I placed an order with Superlite five weeks ago and was told they'd be four weeks wait. I called back after four and was told they'd be one week. I called back after that; engaged; no answer; engaged; engaged; no answer; no answer; no reply to email; finally an answer - "we lost your order, can you fax it again please" - faxed again; no reply; no answer...... no wheels
Rant over
Has anyone else found them hopeless? I want to give them my money!
Cheers

I had a similar experience 4 years back -when i needed to specifiy a deadline for a set of rims on a Fiat 1500 I was exporting. They accepted the deadline -IN WRITING -but missed it. By several weeks.
However they did pay to ship the rims, and supplied nuts and a spare set of centre caps as an apology.
Didnt work for me though- wouldnt go there again

Top grammar tips!
Bought = purchased. Brought = relocated
Lose = misplace/opposite of win. Loose = your mum

Thanks guys. I'll cancel my order with Superlite in the morning. I've made enquiries with Midland Wheels and Minilite
Further suggestions for 13" x 6", 114.3 x 4 rims for a my 1968 Corona are welcomed. Must be that size, must suit a 1960's car!
Cheers

Options for wheel size could be more variable - offset and tyre size can be more of a factor than width or diameter. List of 13x6 wheels on Yahoo! Japan, virtually all of which are 114.3. |

Listen to RMad! He speaks wise words  I'd have thought you'd be better off on 14's on your car to be honest, 13's might look a little lost in the arches. You're more than welcome to pop over and try on any of the sets of rims I have |

Yes! Yes! I completely agree. These are fabulous  There is a specific tyre I want to use. It's not made in 14" and 15" is too big for my car so 185/70/13 is the tyre which leaves 5-6" 13" wheel My least favourite wheel is a three-spoke, particularly on a faded red MKIII Chavalier |
