I reckon those listed by Norwichphoto for £38.00 each are a good buy from ukpartsdirect.com.

I don't think that's the same company.srichards wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2024 1:40 pmJust bought a set. Durosense seem a reasonable company and it looks like their UK outlet.

The address on eBay for them is:
Mobiletron UK Ltd
Preston
Which is another brand that I was considering and which is also proposed by autodoc. So perhaps the durosense ones are rebranded Mobiletron ones.
Anyway, where did you buy them? eBay?

Nah, these are half the price. If I'm getting a spurious brand, I might as well get a cheap one.steve2003rs6 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2024 2:10 pmI reckon those listed by Norwichphoto for £38.00 each are a good buy from ukpartsdirect.com.

If they're crap I'll get the Hella ones. And then if, as is frequently the way of these things for me, they are also crap I'll get the Huf ones and kick myself for not getting the Huf ones in the first place.

That’s a great wheel Steve which fits quite nicely straight out of the box. I use the B7 RS4 wheel as my winter wheel fitted with studded tyres!steve2003rs6 wrote:Hi Ben

Many thanks for your help.
Ps not my car. Similar alloys.
RS4 B7 Audi Le Mans alloys

Et 29
Perfect fit. No spacers or spigot rings.

Hi Craig.
Yes mate I have always liked the Le Mans alloys.
Took the opportunity to fit TPMS.
Alloys at et 29 fit perfectly.
I don’t know why but with the original wheels being et 35. They fouled the front caliper. So had to have spacers with them.

Hey Ben I got this this morning.
Reckon it was for 4
Re: Fitted new TPMS - TX-S001 Direct Fit TPMS Sensor
Arrived already and they come with valves too. They'll go on when the first sensor starts moaning... guaranteed to be never now!
Re: Fitted new TPMS - TX-S001 Direct Fit TPMS Sensor
Cool. Silver coloured valves?

Re: Fitted new TPMS - TX-S001 Direct Fit TPMS Sensor
My TPMS turned up. They look good. I'm slightly concerned that there's no marking or label identifying them as the DS001AUD that I ordered and therefore suitable for the car. I'm sure they are, but given the hassle involved in fitting them, I'd like to be reassured that they are at least the right part before getting the tyres off and back on again.

Look good Ben. Was the price each or for 4.
IIRC I phoned them to check for the same reason.
