Does anybody have any knowledge or experience with MAXILITE wheels. They are a Swedish company and their wheels are supposedly TUV app;roved. They make an Alpina replica (16x7 4x100 ET28) for fitment on E21 and E30 vehicles.

Quite a few vintage Porsche owners have used the Maxilite Fuchs replica wheel with good results.

Thanks in advance for any input.

A friend of mine has these wheels in Germany, and has cracked 2 already, I'd say steer clear.

That is disappointing..I would have expected a stronger wheel with TUV certification. And at $250/ea plus shipping, they are not inexpensive.

Thanks for sharing!
