Hi all, I have just emailed the above, in Germany and first enquiry says that they can supply and ship a single RS4 alloy for £495 Euros. They also supply the Titanium ones. I asked if OEM and they said yes and a uk dealer quoted £428 so the above are about £100 cheaper. I was thinking of getting a spare to put in garage just in case I get a flat. Firsly has anyone used the above or can anyone give any feedback on them? and secondly is anyone interested in a GB. If so I could make enquries into discount?

Yes I've used them for the same reason. No problems with them at all and very helpful, quick and efficient, The chap I spoke to speaks very good english as well.
These are brand new Audi wheels and not refurbs or seconds, best of all though, even with delivery, they are miles cheaper than the dealer.

Thanks Graham. Does the price sound okay or will they go cheaper?

You can always ask I suppose but if you are buying just the one then I doubt that there is much room for improvement - might be a different story for a GB though.

Please remember, if you go ahead with a group buy you need to do it correctly and post details in the group buy forum

Good point, Global trade quoted the price as shipped so i guess vat will be payable although you dont have to declare items being shipped from other eu countries. Not sure is the honest answer so I have emailed Monty at Global Trade to find out. If duty is payable at 5% and vat at 17.5% that means the price is going to jump to around the £390 mark. Still a saving on UK dealer but not what I was hoping for. As a side note I imported an Ultimate Detailing Machine from the states and have not paid a bean just the price from Autopia in the USA.

Ask them to put it as a gift on the shipping form or free that saves all the problems!
