You should discuss the price difference with Bob Jane. It's a significant difference and they may come to the party and match the price.

Post pics when you've got them.

I agree with Matt. Im sure Bob Jane, in this highly competitive world we live in would be happy to match your price if not surely itw worth a drive from Brooky to Tempe to save several hundred dollars.

As always

Thanks - but wasn't asking in regards to a Z, just interested in seeing them in general. Already have Volks on my Z.

True that.

Our genuine Nismo floor mats arrived yesterday, I ordered them on Wednesday

Was 200 bucks cheaper than buying Z mats from Nissan Aus

Steve, when I was looking around at wheels and tyres I went to Tempe and a few of the other large so called wheel and tyre specialists and they just had no idea about sizes, and just suggested whatever they had on special. When I compared there suggestions on the tyre calculator they were usually way off the mark.

Brett.
