Has any1 had their cars lowered at the tyre factory? Are they reputable? Also, would it be advisable to get bigger rims at the same time as getting the car lowered or it doesn't matter? They lower cars from $350, is that reasonable?

Tyre factory did new tyres for my mates car, 17's, not long after 1 of the tyres had a bubble which was a manufacturing fault and they straight out refused to replace it. Tyre wasn't thrashed or anything at all..

You sure for that price they don't just get out the ol' angle grinder?

Sounds like you need a quote for a BA before you go any further

theres a thread on here somewhere didicated to the service (or lack of it) from TTF. ive had pretty crap service from 2 different tyre factory stores and wont be going back there again anytime soon.
ive found the guys from Canterbury Mag Wheel and Tyre have been really really good. price wise they've always looked after me and any probs have been dealt with on the spot, no questions asked.
