I Think i paid £120 for them but had to supply my own covers. A BMW specialist made them for me - down sussex way i think.

depends mate, I think its your responsibility to check over the packaging and write on the delivery note box damaged or you might not be able to claim.

I sometimes see ebay listings stating that you write packaging damaged as a matter of course, or make the delivery driver wait whilst you check them over.

Hope it gets sorted mate, you rang the couriers? what they say?

Cheers
Dan

I make you right there Dan , the courier wont wanna know about the damage - unfortunately my wife was the one who took delivery of the wheels while i was away and never thought to check. not blaming anyone, its just one of those things - ive spoken to Martin, hes hopeful something can be done about it.

Yeah the wheel is 100% repairable - but my argument is , i paid brand new money for these wheels so id expect brand new un damaged wheels to turn up from the courier! surely im not asking for much?
