Anyone know if SP12s (think thats their name?) are readily available?

I had them on my old T350 and much prefer them to the spiders..

TIA

I assume that £775 is for a set of 4?

It doesn't say on the website.

I'd go to Demon Tweeks or Team Dynamics direct- if you're happy with the Pro Race / TD branding on the wheel. I fitted Anthractite 17" to my Chimie and they were a big improvement on the originals imo. I understand the SP12 are the same wheel without the branding ?

I guess this was some time ago ? or you might have a friendly contact, in which case you would be getting him in trouble.

We pay more than that per rim !! and we have to buy in pallet loads, in return TD give ACT sole rights to SP12, the price of £775 reflects the extra cost over the standard pro-race 1.2s ( less than TD RRP) , also there was a 25% increase from factory this year.

Didn't want to post but have to protect my investment.

Don't panic it was a couple of years ago. We can't be having ACT making less than 45% margin....

A unhappy former customer...

They're a business not a charity. Plus these are a special version with the branding removed.

Phew glad you told me that I always wondered what the difference between a charity and a business was....I will have to address my business ethic with my company....

You TVR boys with your 'your special this and special that' it makes me laugh sometimes TVR are basically assembled kit cars with a good few off the shelf Ford/Rover/VW/vauxhall etc. I see my Tamora as an up market Westfield.

What is wrong with 45% margin before costs? (I don't know the actual cost price here, just using your figure).

Um what parts on your Tamora are Ford/Rover/VW/Vauxhall? On my Chimaera you'd have a point of sorts...
