i know they had allot of trouble with their 6x10 ultralites, no one can get tyres on them without tearing the bead on the tyre.

i had a set and trying different tyre fitters ended up with 4 scrapped yokos.

buy tyres from them, buy bits from them, dont buy wheels though!


I had the same problem with some 6x12's, its all because of the square edge of the rims.

I finally gave up and turned down and rounded off the edge on a lathe. Now tyres fit no problem.

I've had a few sets off them with no problems. They just sell cheap wheels and thats what you get for your money.


I've not had to return any or complain yet but the service i've had off them is pretty good. Bought a set of mamba off them online. They phoned me up to tell me they were out of stock the next day. Sorted out an alternative with them and arranged to pick them up at a show.

Picked them up no problems, the guy even lent me his traders pass so I could drive up to the stand and pick them up easier.




Where these the gold ones on your clubman??? im planning to buy the same one for mine, 5x10 mambas (gold) with W&P arches...in front 12 to 10 conversion kit and rear brake drums with built in spacers.
friendly regards, Fozz
