Aftermarket Wheel Load Rating

[dubber36]

How do you go about finding the load rating of wheels? I'm searching for wheels for the Velle, but whilst many sites tell me what will physically fit, there's never any mention of load rates, other than for tyres.

It's a minefield, most manufacturers who supply the German market should be able to supply a TÜV certificate for rated wheels.

Might be easier putting up links to the wheels you narrow down. Many people have gone through all this, and there are some proper wheel geeks in here that know the load ratings of loads of different wheels.

As a common rule of thumb, most of the manufactures that make a song and dance about load ratings, are the manufactures that know there is a market for high load ratings.
The ones that say nothing about load ratings are normally well under what we can officially use.
