[quote][i]Originally posted by Hammer Man[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by starkmotorsport[/i] :lol: No worries mate! I was a little confused with what you meant with the induction! I think you should have a good look for Motorsport wheels as there is definately a big market over where you are. [/quote] Well, our market has its particularities... Some brands even export wheels to USA and Europe, like Binno does. But no one fabricates lightweight wheels around here. The best you can get for a normal price is OZ Superleggera, but is still much more expensive than our brazilian TSWs. Other brands that are very common in other places, simply doesn't exist here. It is even rare to see BBS wheels! I know this very well, because we used to work with wheels and tyres from 89 till a couple years ago... We even made our own 17 and 18 wheels! They were very cool! If something is expensive in the place where it came from, here it will be at least doble the price. I'm talking about double in Euros, Dollars, etc. Convert it to our money and thing gets uglier! Wanna know what third world means? It means that the average worker earns US$ 300/month (i mean the kind of people that can really participate of the car market and aftermarket, because the REAL average worker receives something like 90 dollars/month or less) and the imports costs twice as expensive in comparison to the place they were made! And you still have the freight... Well, no complains. Here is a good place to live, and a lot of things are still waiting to be done. A huge market is waiting. But untill this market develop completely, you have to create your own solutions. (belive me: That gave us a lot of handwork... I wouldn't be silly to loose my time with such thing if it was that easy just go out and buy a set of better and lighter wheels...) :thumbs: [Edited on 01-06-2004 by Hammer Man] [/quote]
