Nigel,
ordered some TD Pro Race 1.2s in black for my Scottie on (let me check my statement confused ) 13th July from Rochford Tyres in Essex - did me a really good deal for wheels + Toyo T1Rs. Delivery within 21 days. However am STILL waiting.... grr ... the wheels were to be made to order, and evidently two of the first four wheels manufactured failed quality control. At the moment I can put little blame on Rochford as they have made efforts to keep me informed (and thrown in locking wheelnuts as a sweetener laugh ). I will rattle the cage again tomorrow, as I would like the wheels for Wings and Wheels angel driving on Bank Holiday Monday.

However if they do not arrive in the next week I am going to cancel the order and just refurb my standards.

Slightly off topic, but I'm beginning to be suspicious about TD,

As a follow-up to my previous post, my wheels and tyres finally arrived on Thursday laugh . Fitted them yesterday, and just off to the garage to check the pressures. Then round to the local spares shop for some locking nuts!

Tim, although Nigel said he's had good service from TD, what you are experiencing is EXACTLY what happened to me, it was nearly 3 months before mine turned up, and when they did I had 3 wheels in one colour and another in a different shade of silver.
Their customer service was shocking to the point that they started making up lies!

I personally wouldn't use them again.

Because 215/40 17 is the closest you will get to the same profile as the standard 205/50 16 or 225/45 16
