Yes. The business is conducted on the basis of the Quality Management System according to ISO 9001:2015 - "Distribution of automotive rims and equipment, parts and accessories for the automotive industry". Within its framework, FELGEO.PL introduces only products of verified quality. In the case of rims - depending on the brand - quality confirmation takes the form of certification, standards, norms such as TÜV, KBA, ABE, JWL, VIA, IATF 16949 (formerly ISO TS 16949).

In terms of rim development and production, in Q4 2023. FELGEO.PL underwent an audit by TÜV Austria Automotive GMBH. Its result is certificate No. 20110 626823, which confirms that the company has implemented a quality management system accepted by this internationally recognized certification body. The system also guarantees compliance with the requirements of the StVZO (German: Straßenverkehrs-Zulassungs-Ordnung) - the regulations in force in Germany that govern the admission of vehicles to road traffic. This area, in turn, is supervised by the German KBA (German: Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt).

Yes. The store runs a number of promotional campaigns. Starting from seasonal, related to the calendar such as: Christmas, May Day, Black Friday, Black Week, ending with trade fairs and directed to particular groups of customers. Information is presented in the form of banners, newsletters, social media posts and in the store's "Promotions" tab.

FELGEO.PL suggests entrusting these activities to professional entities. In particular, one with established procedures in this regard, e.g. through association in service networks, as well as one that has been evaluated in a certification process, e.g. TÜV, PZPO (Polish Tire Industry Association), or one that is already well-established on the market, with personnel with verified qualifications. Ordering installation services from such an entity gives you a guarantee of proper workmanship, safety of use and care for the entrusted property.
On the practical side in this regard, FELGEO.PL points out to customers special attention to such aspects of the assembly process as:

1. Mounting tires with the use of protective elements (pads on the jaws, on the mounting bead, on the bumper, on the rim edge, etc.) or on mounting machines with a center mount, the use of accessories dedicated to low-profile, UHP or run-on-flat tires, such as mounting/dismounting in the "Leverless" system, attachments, auxiliary arms, including, for example, those certified by WDK (German Association of German Rubber Products Manufacturers),
2. Wheel balancing using accessories for precise centering, such as: mounting discs with pins matched to the type of rim seat, a wide range of cones, expansion bushings (e.g., from the recognized brand HAWEKA AG). Use of the following functions: optimization, Smart Weight, Road Force Touch, and others that allow precise balancing. Use of weights to ensure permanent attachment to the rim after balancing and during operation,
3. Mounting wheels using properly selected nuts or bolts for the rim seat, pins, if required also centering rings or spacer discs. Use of appropriate tools: spacing gauge, torque wrench, manual, mechanical (without impact function, destructive to threaded joints), accessories for cleaning the interfaces of the rim and wheel hub,
4. The use of accessories and equipment to ensure the programming and adaptation of TPMS pressure sensors, the assembly/disassembly of their valves, as well as the assembly/disassembly of classic valves matched to the valve seats of the rims, as well as pressure gauges with verified measurement precision.
   If the assembly concerns already assembled wheels as part of seasonal replacement, and is performed by you yourself, you should pay attention to the issues described in points. 3 and 4 - if appropriate tools and equipment are available. In the course of these activities, please be guided by safety rules (wheel chocks, a functioning jack, supports of the so-called "cradles", etc.).

It depends on the specific situation. Why? Here are some examples:

NO, if the manufacturer of a particular brand of rims has provided fasteners as part of the kit, such as SEVENTY9, WRATH WHEELS. Information about this will be in the description of the goods, under the heading "INCLUDED IN THE KIT WITH THE RIM."

YES, when:

1. You have steel rims and you are replacing them with aluminum rims with us - steel rim mounts, as a rule, will not fit aluminum rims, this is due to the peculiarities of the sockets of the mounting holes (cone, sphere, flat washer) so we recommend buying the appropriate nuts or bolts from our offer,
2. Previous aluminum rims have different mounting hole sockets - it may happen that the attractive design you choose from our offer will not be compatible with your current mountings, e.g. factory ball screw vs. cone socket in new rims. We recommend that you purchase a mount with the appropriate parameters,
3. The rims you select from us are different in color from your current rims - we recommend purchasing mounts from our offer, you can choose from the available colors and types of coatings at your discretion. The new mounts will certainly blend in perfectly with the new set of rims, or simply the old mounts have already lost enough appeal and need to be replaced,
4. Your car is already years old, the mounts have not been replaced for a long time - of course, we recommend replacing them. Safety is a very important issue. Threaded connections in the course of operation wear out, corrode, the strength of the metal alloy over time decreases, used in their assembly and disassembly impact tools destructive to their life, did not control or exceeded the torque recommended by the vehicle manufacturer, etc..,
5. You decide on the variant of installation using spacer discs - if you inform us about this, you will certainly receive appropriate guidance in this regard. When it turns out that a longer bolt than you currently have is then required, we recommend that you purchase one from our offer. This will ensure the safety and security of the wheel mounting.

1. If your purchase is for a set, it will be 4 rims packed in the designated cartons. The rims are also protected inside the cartons and, depending on the manufacturer, these can be: protective rims for the rims, fabric covers for the fronts, plastic bags, protective fillings (e.g. cardboard insert, styrofoam, plastic). Each carton includes a lid with a logo.
2. The cartons may also contain FELGEO.PL advertising materials and the terms and conditions of the rim warranty in the form of a printout (also available in electronic form in the description of goods in the store or online auctions).

1. The offer of FELGEO.PL provides for matching to the selected vehicle, which results from the author's configurator on the store's website. This configurator, in turn, is based on the technical parameters contained in many configurators available on the market for individual brands, manufacturers, distributors. The whole is also based on experience, analysis of cases, in order to most accurately match individual rim models to vehicles,
2. NEW 2024 - Customers using mobile devices (Android, iOS) have at their disposal an innovative solution, based on augmented reality (AR - Augmented Reality). It is a configurator in the form of an application, available in the AR-WHEELS.COM domain. Thanks to it, at any place and time, it is possible to "try on" the selected model of the rim to the actual car the customer has. The database contains 3D and 2D rim models, prepared to a high standard of mapping quality. The application features a friendly interface and intuitive operation. h ttps://ar-wheels.com

Stocks are updated on an ongoing basis. If the rims of your choice are visible in the store's offer, it means that they are available and you can purchase them. At the time of ordering you will also receive information on the estimated lead time. In the case of some brands of rims, this time may be extended, for example, to 5-7 days, due to the location of the warehouse outside of our country. However, this does not mean that the goods are not available. Most of the offer, however, is available "off-the-shelf", with a lead time of up to 24 hours, as the stocks of brands belonging to FELGEO.PL (including Carbonado and Seventy9) are maintained at a sufficiently high level in the main warehouse at the company's headquarters.

The lid is originally packed together with the rim, it is an inseparable set. We do not sell separately the lids themselves. However, from time to time FELGEO.PL sells "clean" wheel covers, we recommend to consult their matching to the rim before purchase. If the rims were purchased from us - there should be no problem.

ET is a very important parameter that determines the offset of the rim on the hub. If the rim has an ET that is too low, the wheel may protrude beyond the outline of the car, while an ET that is too high will cause rubbing on the brake caliper or individual suspension components, wheel recesses. You can always ask FELGEO.PL consultants about the correct ET for your car.

Rings are used for aluminum wheels, the size of the center hole of which is larger than the size of the hub in the car. In this case, without rings, it would be difficult to properly center the wheel on the hub. The effect of omitting this component can be "wheel whipping" while driving or vibration on the steering wheel at speeds of 80-120 km/h, as well as faster wear of the steering and suspension. It should also be remembered that incorrect centering affects the safety of use, is an undesirable phenomenon and puts a strain on the wheel's mounting components.

Floating bolts are used to correct the spacing of the mounting holes in the rim. These bolts allow you to correctly and safely install on the hub of the car rims with different hole spacing than their hub spacing.Note - in workshop practice it is recommended that the difference in spacing should not exceed 2 mm. For example, for a car with a spacing of 5x110, you can mount with them rims with a spacing of 5x112 (and vice versa).

The basic principle is to store the rims in a cleaned state. By this we mean rims washed, dried and, as recommended, protected with, for example, wax, ceramic coating. We will then avoid the undesirable effects that can occur when dirt is left on their surface for a long time. Regardless of whether we store the entire wheels or the rims themselves, it is necessary to ensure the right conditions. In doing so, they should not be left in damp conditions, where moisture can compensate, for example, in plastic bags, soggy cardboard boxes, etc. If previously unremoved dirt, brake dust, chemicals, road salt, corroded weights are superimposed on top of this, you can only expect negative effects on the paint finish of the rims. Storage is an excellent opportunity to assess the condition of the rims. If necessary, you should also regenerate, replenish minor paint defects, perform so-called touch-ups. This will protect them from oxidation of the alloy stripped of the varnish coating, this applies in particular to the fronts exposed to the greatest damage.

The basic criterion will be, in the main, the diameter and width of the rim. The larger, the heavier the rim. As a rule, because rims that are similar in parameters can also differ in weight due to production technology. Typically, the heaviest rims will be those produced by casting (gravity, low-pressure) technology. This is due to the fact that the alloy in this case is the least "compacted". A sufficiently large cross-section is then required to achieve the required strength, which generates a higher mass. A lower weight is obtainable in the case of rims made with "FlowForm" or so-called forged "Forged" technology. Both of them are based on plastic processing - rolling, forging using advanced machinery. As a result, the alloy is properly "compacted". The rim is then more resistant to damage while maintaining a smaller cross-section, thus also a lower weight. The design itself should also be taken into account. Lighter will certainly be rims with fewer spokes, connections of the spokes to the rim, with larger spaces between them, than rims with a more "full" pattern, more tightly filling the front.

FELGEO.PL's offer is based exclusively on verified manufacturers. Those that provide appropriate standards, including: TÜV, KBA, ABE, JWL, VIA, IATF 16949 (formerly ISO TS 16949). The catalog of available rims is constantly being improved and modified. This is due to market dynamics and current trends. An important element in the selection is also the technology used and the corresponding production capacity.

Yes, however, subject to availability in the offer of the respective manufacturer. Offers to purchase only a set, i.e. 4 pieces or multiples, will be clearly marked in the model description. If two available widths, e.g. 9.5 inches and 10.5 inches, are distinguished within a set, this will also be indicated. If you are interested in purchasing 1 piece, you can also contact our consultants through a convenient communication channel - chat, phone, e-mail, form. However, keep in mind that such a purchase may involve the implementation of the so-called individual order - exclusion of the right to withdraw from a contract concluded at a distance, without giving a reason.

Yes, FELGEO.PL takes care of proper communication with customers. During the purchase process it is required to provide an e-mail address. It is to this address that you will receive confirmation of your purchase, and subsequently the purchase document. When the goods are ready to be shipped, a separate message will provide the waybill number to facilitate monitoring of the delivery process.

Buyers, having the status of a Consumer or so-called Individual Entrepreneur, may within 14 days, counting from the receipt of the Goods, make a declaration of withdrawal from the contract concluded remotely, without giving any reason, under the so-called right of reflection. Exclusion in this regard is the purchase under the so-called individual order. The possibility of return is also determined by individual decisions on complaints under warranty, non-conformity of the Goods with the contract or warranty. Detailed information in this regard can be found in the Rules of the store.

Yes, detailed conditions in this regard are specified. In the description of each model of rims you will find a reference to them, for example, "PRODUCER WARRANTY 24 months?", where if you hover over the question mark "?" there is an option to download them. From this level, a complaint and withdrawal form is also available. In the process of preparing the rims for shipment, these terms and conditions can also be attached as a double-sided printout in A5 format. In electronic form, available at the link: Warranty Terms and Conditions

There is no clear answer to this question. Even assuming a comparison of rims by size, such as 20 inches, in the case of different brands the price spread can be significant. In addition to the so-called "brand valuation", which in most cases determines or can determine this or that price level in relation to competing products, we have many more variables. These include production technology. It is it that mainly determines the price level, this process is highly cost-intensive. The cheapest rims will be those made by the casting method (gravity, low-pressure). More expensive will be those made by FlowForm technology (rolled, rolled), and the most expensive will be the so-called forged (Forged). For the latter two, expensive, specialized machinery is required, in addition to the number of processes in processing, greater than for castings. More advanced technologies allow for higher quality - precision craftsmanship, more refined design, higher strength, lower weight - which must undoubtedly be reflected in the price. Then the saying that applies to what you get for a given price undoubtedly applies.
