dubman 39 Report post Posted July 23, 2012 lol, you might as well buy some XXR 531's in Platinum first, because I still struggle to justify spending ~4k-5k for a set landed in NZ (new that is) but, go for it, its your money, and tell me when you want to part with them Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dubman 39 Report post Posted July 24, 2012 (edited) After you sort out the following: tax, logistics, payment, shipping arrangement etc... The cost of it all would be roughly the same or even a little higher as Magwarehouse importing it (based on my calculations from the start of the year). Give them a call/pay them a visit, they may have changed their charges. You pay them $$ per wheel (incl. shipping and GST), plus the cost of the wheels itself. edit: nlmotoring is where Magwarehouse sources their XXR's from (they told me this) Edited July 24, 2012 by dubman Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
