Not mentioned on Wheelbase’s website either. Goes to show that TüV testing isn’t necessarily a big differentiator in the UK where regulations don’t require independent testing. You can see why companies that don’t sell to countries where this is required, are perhaps reluctant to go to the expense of getting wheels independently tested. Just because a wheel hasn’t got TüV certification, doesn’t mean they’re no good. Plenty of manufacturers have TüV tested lines and non TüV tested lines (e.g. Wolfrace). Same goes for aftermarket suspension kit.Where are you mentioning that on your site out of interest? Only reason I ask is that I was just looking at the Sparco Gravels and note on the Sparco website that they are TUV certified, but couldn‘t see it in your ad for them:
Gravel - Sparco Wheels
Sparco Gravel is a powerful wheel, yet lightweight in its lines. It has an outer lip with a polygonal cutout motif which, in addition to reducing the weight of the wheel itself, is also a key design element. The point of departure or, better yet, of inspiration, was again the overseas 4x4 world...www.sparcowheels.com
Fully appreciate you’re a UK company and it’s not a requirement but it might be worth mentioning it within the ads, then there is zero doubt.
