Just to update this...Christine sent the replacement outer rim and I repaired it. I was working on that wheel alone. Now today I’m took that wheel off my workbench to take to get the tires mounted and low and behold it’s now a different size! Christine sent me the outer lip for a 8.5” front wheel and I have 8” front
wheels. Now I have two different size front wheels. See photos. I don’t care to take the wheel apart again for a third time so I’m hoping to work out some thing with them on a whole new wheel. The icing on the cake is I believe Tramont is closed until August 27th for vacation. So another month without them mounted. Thankfully I have a nice set of Cup 2s on the car.

Oh man...that's a Bummer. I too had some issues with mine. One of the Boxes was dropped by DHL during shipping and light damage on the inner barrel of the rear wheel. Christine sent me a new Barrel but i dont think its the same size. How Wide is your Inner Barrel on your 18x8 Front as opposed to the 18x8.5 now?
Just sent you a pm and I thought I would reply here too...
The GB officially ended few months ago so I am not sure if they will still give you the GB pricing, but you can email Christine at Tramont and see. Her email address is: cjacquet.tramont@orange.fr
It doesn't hurt to check, just ask if you can still be part of GB with Andy from the U.S.? Hope it works out...
Hi All, Hi Hulee, Im also late to the party and have emailed Christine, Hulee not sure what you had back from her..I'm also in California if this helps with shipping further down the line.
Reviving this thread since I have received quite a few PMs after the group buy ended three years ago. I recently emailed Christine at Tramont and asking for a friend regarding possible discount for another group buy, she provided me with the pricing below (Not sure the current list price but I believe it's still 20% off).
Shipping needs to be added for the final pricing depending on the location, but I think last time (3yrs ago) the shipping to west coast was about 650 euro. Just gauging here see if there are more than 8 people interested. I won't be getting a set this time but I might be able to just compile the list and send it to Christine and individual can follow up with her to finish the transaction. By the way, she also mentioned the price will increase after June 15 due to material cost! Just reply to this thread if you are interested! Thanks!
Andy

Aswe are currently undergoing dramatic increases in the prices of raw materials in Europe, this order is valid until the 15th June only.
Are people satisfied with their wheels? Seems like there may have been production issues?
I've only put maybe 500 miles on them in the last 2ish years, but they're really nicely built wheels. The only annoying part is the water seeping from behind the lips after cleaning. Gotta drive a little then dry a second time to avoid spotting. I'm considering a second set in this group buy.
I would be interested in two sets: 993NB Black Brakes and 964NB both with GT2 grey centers. Let me know.
Hi Nathan:
I am not sure about the 964NB fitment, I think in Christine's email she mentioned to contact her for 964 fitment. Can you email her at cjacquet.tramont@orange.fr to check? Just mention you are part of the Group Buy with Andy and see what she says!
Let me know. Thanks.
