Genuine Breyton wheels
Recently I am planning to purchase a set of Breyton GTS-R wheels for my 135i coupe. However, I'm worrying if I will get a set of fake Breyton...
From china online stores there are too much "fake" Breytons which from the outlook a normal person cannot tell it is genuine or fake... In some posts here, a lot drivers report cracking on the Breyton wheels... I suspect if these wheels are the fake one...? Any people here can tell how to differentiate genuine and fake Breyton wheels? Thanks. |

tirerack.com does international shipping and carries the real deal.
otherwise, if you look at the wheel: See around the middle there's writing that's made of raised lettering? It should have the Breyton Logo, have the model of the rim, have the TUV certification, and maybe one or two other things written on there. If it doesn't, it's not real. It should also come with real breyton center caps, I guess Other than that, I'm not sure there is any other way to tell. Maybe to weigh the rim, because a cheap knockoff would surely weigh more than the relatively lightweight real breytons.

I asked Tirerack and they said genuine Breyton GTS-R are made in China. But from http://www.breytonwheels.co.uk/wheel...hp?wheelID=127 , they mention it is made in Germany. I also get quote from a China vendor who carry both genuine and fake GTS-R. They said fake one are from China and real one from Germany... All these made me confused... ~_~ |
