Well yeah, it might be due to no taxes here. A set of BBS rims (18") will cost around Dh2500 w/ tyres. Whereas a set of TE37s (also 18") costs between Dh9000-11000. Isn't there a great difference?!!Yunis wrote:dubai is tax free on goods as well right? you got a point, but how much would a set of these wheels go for? and how much are te TE37's? in the uk they usually go for about £2000 for a typical 18x9.5 size

well its because there is not local agent/dealer of the rims, people buy it from other places and sell it here according to the price they ask forShalashaska wrote:Well yeah, it might be due to no taxes here.

well, how about wheel caps thenStormline wrote:Man In here in England if i put new wheels on the car the Isurance will go higher.
any thing do with the shape of the car or the engine, am talking about body kit and so on.. will make the insurance go higher.
forget wheel caps... even if you put a nismo sticker on the back they will charge you extra!
In uk we get taxed for everything we do! next they will introduce walking or breathing tax lol

That is so crazy man! I see you people really suffer there in terms of tuning out cars. Damn..Yunis wrote:forget wheel caps... even if you put a nismo sticker on the back they will charge you extra!
Damn man... so you people should put up stickers once uve insured ur car.. the cops would only check for the car insurance not the sticker insurance ;p
there is no sticker insurance the car insurance will go higher if you put vinyls on it its all with the car insurance.
If you haven't paid for car insurance and Police stop you and find that you haven't paid you will go to Jail for few days and you have to pay fine too, the fine will be at least £300 or more.
