Got clamped today!!
I went to a cash point today and there was no where to park in the cash point car park so I parked in a car park directly opposite, as the cash point was 15' away from the car so I quickly walked to the cash point got money walked backed to the car and in the space of about 3 mins max a clamper was parked behind my car smiling saying I have clamped you and its going to cost you £70 to take it off :( I kept on saying I have only been gone 3 minutes etc, but no he would not take it off so I spent £70 parking for 3 minutes. He did say I could write to the address on the bottom of the reciept and appeal, which I have done but FFS :( :cry: :cry:

I have recently purchased these alloys from Nad300 :http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=63722 In total I ended up paying £350.00 as agreed then he wanted an extra £27.50 for postage £377.50 all together. Alloys arrived last wednesday I opened them up and there was a cap missing from the rear wheel(not to bothered) then I opened the front 2 and curbed does not come close, they where grinded all around the edges and there was corosion in the corners of the spokes :mad: I phoned Nad and he said that the cap is probably missing as RM open all there parcels to check for drugs and it probably fell out then. He then said the alloys where in good condition but the most he could refund me was £40. which I agreed even though the cost of refurbing was £45 a wheel cash no VAT £180 total, so I thought well £40 is about half of the cost of having the front two alloys refurbed. So I took them down there same day and left alloys with them. Yesterday I went down to see how they are getting on with the wheels thats when I noticed the condition of the tyres 3 of them where very badly worn, so I went next door to a company called Save on Tyres and they came over with me to look at the alloys and said the rears are 8j same as the fronts and the widest tyre recommended for a 8j alloy is 245mm width these have 255/40/17 rear and 235/40/17 front so I could not get 255/40/17 Goodyear f1 gd s3 tyres on them that I was after(even though in Nads description tyres have 4-5mm tread on all tyres) I phoned Nad and said I wanted a refund and I was going to send the alloys back, he said he would not except that and he did'nt lie, and that he has spent the money :mad: He said that the tyre place was lieing and that you can fit 255 tyres on safely and he would phone them and ring me back. When Nad rang me back he said that save on tyres said that all other 255/40/17 tyres would fit just not the Goodyears. I went down there again the chap on the counter said Nad rang and the chap had tried explaining you need 9J alloys to except 255 tyres but Nad slammed the phone down on him.I will be taking the wheels to yet another tyre specialist who I have rang and asked whats the widest width tyre on a 8j alloy and suprise suprise 245mm. He will also measure the tyre depth on all the wheels that I will photograph and post. The only reason I have posted tis as I have just found this thread: http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=59007 posted in october giving an even falser description of these fookin alloys :mad: :mad: :mad: I do not want anybody else on the forum getting stung :mad: And I will be seeking further compensation once I find out that 3 fookin tyres need replacing. :mad: :mad: Thankyou all for reading this I am going to down a few :duffer: :duffer: to calm me down. If there are any typo's in this you can see why.

tint or film
Mine have been painted but proffesinally so they look very good, but I would probably recommend film, as I have tinted my front indicators with spray and its tricky to make it look nice close up.
