Returns Policy & Terms1
OUR #1 PRIORITY IS SATISFIED CUSTOMERS
We endeavour to guide you through every step of your purchase if need be and always strive to offer you the best price, best service & best advice. We cross reference every order with the make and model you have ordered your wheels and/or tyres for but understand that every customer may has different requirements depending on vehicle application (Road car, Race car, Off-road only 4x4, On-Road/off-road 4x4, custom fitments and excessively modified vehicles). If we see that the fitment is totally incorrect based on what you have ordered vs the make and model entered (eg, incorrect stud pattern) we will be in contact to confirm your order just to ensure its correct the first time.
In the event that products need to be returned please follow our policies below and if you have any questions don’t hesitate to call us on (02) 8999 4866 for any further questions.
What is the Return & Refund policy?
