i ordered fox 1s from halfords when they had the 20% off and also i got the 15% off as well because my mate works there. halfords get them off a place called motorsport, when i ordered them motorsport didnt have any in and didnt know when they where getting them i, finally they said they would have them at the end of the mouth, but low and behold they still havent got any in. i put the order through on the 5 of may. anyone else had this problem?
cheers

I paid £380 for my Fox 4's. To be honest, they're not too bad, but it depends what they're like near you.

I wouldn't go back though, now I know what I'm talking about

Rite i ordered my 15" OZ from halfords and was told they were a 47 ofset, so i bought them, When i got the wheels they were ofset 37!!!!! i was really pissed off they didnt want to refund my money to me either, so know i have to pay extra to get them machined to another offset also they delivery times are crap they never know when anything will arrive, avoid them for modification parts, for everything else they are generally good.

I work for halfords. TBH....its not always the employees fault that wheels take so long to come in....its the people halfords deal with. Sometime it is the staffs fault, forgettin to order or woteva, but 98% of the time...its motorsport wheels' fault!
