Question about CSL Wheels from **********s

Braky99 · 09-02-2008, 09:40 AM

Hi there,

Let me introduce myself, Braky living in Luxembourg ( Europe ) owning a BMW 123d and i'm interested to purchase some 19" CSL Wheels from **********s ( or any other site who answers me

) but i got a question.

In Luxembourg you need a certificate that proves that the wheels have been tested and pass the norm tests of quality like a TüV or ABE Certificate to make the wheels street legal on your car.

If i would buy those wheels, would i get such a certificate ?

sorry for bad english :P

Did you try PMing **********s or e-mailing them directly? Hopefully they can get you an answer as people in the US do not have to have such certifications so few manufactures spend the time/money to get their products certified. Good luck and hopefully you will get some answers soon!

The manufacturer would be able to supply you with that information.

Call them directly. My personal guess is that they won't be TUV approved.

The Velocity Motoring wheels we carry are not TUV approved however they are JWL and VIA Certified. I have had customers in Europe attain TUV approval by taking the wheels to a TUV certification center which you pay a fee for them to test the wheels and ensure they are safe. The Velocity wheels pass these tests with flying colors.

I'm dealing with TUV in Austria right now and I understand your concern. If I could have hit the guy today, I would have.
