Then a month later he told me they didn't have them in stock yet and that if I really wanted them I'd have to wait for another month but if I got something else they had in stock I'd get them in a few days. I told them I want what I paid for and to get them to me asap. A month later they told me they just arrived so i'd have to wait another week. A week later nothing and Hussein kept saying the same thing for a few more weeks. Then I ended up seeing other rims I liked locally so I rang Hussein and he said that the rims aren't available which is ridiculous after what I've been told so it was obvious to me he was telling different customers all sorts of stories. I then said I want a full refund now. The refund took a week and he said he had done it on many occassions but when I got someone else later that week she said he hasn't done it and she did it for me that day. I'm happy I didn't have to escalate the situation but Hussein made it a very unpleasant experience and should not be in the industry. I ended up getting Work Emotion CR Kai's and never looked back =p
Good to hear you got a result! I can't believe that business is still operational at all really.

By the sounds of it he is completely useless. Don't know why he hasn't been closed down by government.

Ozzy tyres only care about you if your name is Habib & you drive a sex.spec car.

Pretty sure Tempe Tyres is owned by the same company, same reputation too. I got wheels done when I lived in NSW & they were rude arrogant pricks, I'd been emailing & calling for a week or 2 sorting out a deal since I lived 3 hours away...then when I arrived they had NFI what the deal was & tried charging me more. Unfortunatley for them I printed the emails & showed them. Found out later the tyres were undersized & long way off the load rating.

I've also heard various stories about the wrong tyres being shipped...cheap Linglong/Nankang/China stuff when customer pays for quality tyres. Sometimes not even the right size or load rating.

Never go back.

Still Haven't received a refund, the Dept of fair trading told them they have 48 hours to pay or legal action will be proceeded, they rang straight away and tried to bargain their way to $800 instead of paying the full $900. Told the DOFT I want $900 in full or I will be going to court. :x
