Modeldriver Neutral Newbie September 6, 2003 Share September 6, 2003 Their price not too bad... finally upgraded my wheels - got a set of 17" rims (made in TW but under license from 5Zigen) today from them - weighs in at 7.5kg a piece - not too bad compared to my old ones... looks just like my fren's 5zigens too - cost less than $250 a piece Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assassin Clutched September 7, 2003 Share September 7, 2003 Hi Koenigsegg, Wah..your first virgin post. Welcome to MCF ! Do enjoy your stay here. Could you elaborate more on your experience with Yap Bros ? Was it their prices or their service which was not satisfactory ? Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ehonda Neutral Newbie September 7, 2003 Share September 7, 2003 agree with u, i went to Leong Seng and Yap Bros to check on the OZ rims & tyres price, Leong Seng accept trade-in but Yap dont .. so LS is cheaper by almost $100.00. even i buy tyres only, LS also accept trade-in for my Jazz rim at $80....

Phochem Neutral Newbie September 7, 2003 Share September 7, 2003 yup, LS accepts my toyota stock rims for $100 when i bought my OZ rims from them. not a bad deal consider that my rims were in bad condition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astralee 2nd Gear September 7, 2003 Author Share September 7, 2003 (edited) hi. sorri i forgot who is the one who is the ardent supporter of khumo tyres... was it u, saaber or who huh?? Edited September 7, 2003 by Astralee Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Presea 2nd Gear September 7, 2003 Share September 7, 2003 Here's my experience with Yap Bros a few months back: The people there are nice and helpful. Even the guy who was changing and balancing my tyres/rims was giving me info on the condition of my wheels. The "boss" even helped me to tighten some loose parts when i found that parts of my exhaust was loosening up. And the price is actually ok if you bargain. They opened at $95 per piece for Kumho712 - 205/45R16. I mentioned "car forum" and the price dropped to $90 per piece. Then I found that ST115 were $128 per piece (same size), so I got those instead. Paid another $30 for computerised alignment. Overall, I was quite satisfied with their service,... as good as going to Stamford And much better prices (ST115 @ Stamford, $180 per piece) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modeldriver Neutral Newbie September 7, 2003 Share September 7, 2003 wonder if its the one tat i saw?? u using khumo tyres oso?? how much u paid for the tyres? nah... kept my previous set of rubbers - last time when I upgraded the stock 195/65R15 to the current 215/45R17s paid a fortune on the tyres but stinged on the rims - regret, heavy rims certainly suck up power also. Finally found something reasonably nice, simple, 5 spoke, and within budget Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modeldriver Neutral Newbie September 7, 2003 Share September 7, 2003 yep... my experience with them yesterday was quite decent too. No major complaints, except that they won't take in my old set of rims. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
