Are there any purchasing channels for Hongxin wheels?
2 Answers
Hongxin Company does not have online sales channels, and what can be found online are products from agents. If possible, it is recommended to visit the Zhejiang Hongxin headquarters to purchase. The quality of 'Hongxin wheels' from other channels varies, and you need to verify their authenticity if you attempt to purchase them. Below are detailed methods to distinguish genuine from fake products: Check the anti-counterfeiting code: The anti-counterfeiting code is located on the side of the wheel. Wheels without an anti-counterfeiting code are definitely fake. Inspect the steel stamp: The steel stamp on the inner side of the wheel requires careful examination. Hongxin factory shipments are marked 'MADEINHONGXING,' while some may be marked 'MADEBYHONGXING.' The former emphasizes the manufacturing location, and the latter emphasizes the technology. The core technology belongs to Hongxin, but the production location and whether it is produced by Hongxin are not guaranteed. Existing Hongxin wheels are divided into three categories: JS brand: Hongxin's modification brand, genuine Hongxin wheels, with the steel stamp 'jsforgedmadeinhongxin,' an anti-counterfeiting code, and original Hongxin packaging. Hongxin OEM products: There are about two or three domestic brands with Hongxin anti-counterfeiting codes, but not Hongxin packaging, and the wheel steel stamp engravings are also different. Hongxin blank wheels: These are more difficult to authenticate. Mainly check the merchant's qualifications. If the merchant does not have Hongxin's authorization certificate, it is almost 100% fake.
I've been driving modified cars for several years, and there are actually many ways to purchase Hongxin wheels. You can place an order directly on the Hongxin official website—they have an online store where you can select the appropriate size. Taobao or JD.com also have authorized stores, making it convenient to order with fast delivery, but make sure to identify genuine products to avoid counterfeits. For physical stores, local auto parts markets or authorized dealers carry them. It's recommended to check the wheel fitment during installation to avoid buying the wrong size, which could affect driving balance. I personally bought a set online, and the quality was good, but professional adjustment of the bearings during installation is necessary. In short, finding a reliable channel is crucial to avoid vibration or safety issues later on.
