Prepare your RFQ

  • 01 Vehicle, wheel or OE reference
  • 02 Rim flange profile or ring OD × ID
  • 03 Quantity by SKU and destination port

01 / Product sourcing

Specify the interface before pricing the part

Illustrative hub centric ring and two measuring surfaces

Hub centric rings

Give the wheel center bore as the ring outer diameter and the vehicle hub pilot as the inner diameter. Include usable pilot length and the wheel-side chamfer so candidate samples can be checked for full seating.

Open the parts catalog →

Clip-on wheel weights

Match the flange profile before comparing mass increments, clip finish and pack quantity.

Adhesive wheel weights

Record segment mass, total strip height and the available clearance behind the spoke.

Wheel fasteners

Provide thread pitch, seat geometry, engaged length and the wheel application.

02 / Quote inputs

Keep the fitment fields separate

Hub centric rings

Locating diameters
Wheel center bore and hub pilot in millimeters. Label each measurement rather than sending an unlabeled size pair.
Axial geometry
Send overall depth, usable pilot length, both chamfers and the drawing revision.

Wheel balance weights

Attachment
For clip-on parts, submit a flange section or profile code. For adhesive parts, state the installed envelope and rim finish.
Quote basis
List grams per piece or segment, pieces per carton and material restrictions for the target market.

03 / Procurement sequence

From brief to shipment

01

Clarify

Resolve unlabeled ring sizes and missing flange photos before contacting suppliers.

02

Compare

Line up quantities, carton counts, currency, Incoterm and the named place across quotes.

03

Verify

Arrange sample comparison with the approved drawing and record deviations for buyer review.

04

Coordinate

Reconcile carton marks and packing data with the shipment checklist before forwarder handover.

04 / Buyer applications

Different buying programs, different evidence

Importers

Mixed SKU quantities, carton counts and destination.

Service networks

Flange profiles and weights by wheel family.

Fleet programs

Service schedule, duty cycle and fitment records.

Catalog teams

OD, ID and application fields kept distinct.

05 / Sourcing questions

Before you send a size list

In that example, 66.6 mm is the wheel-side outer diameter and 57.1 mm is the hub-side inner diameter. Confirm both against the application, then send the available depth and chamfer. The example is a size format, with fitment subject to buyer approval.

Ask the supplier to identify the intended rim flange profile. Compare clip engagement and clearance on a representative wheel with the buyer’s technician before approving a substitute.

Compare stock when an existing revision matches the approved interface and pack. Custom is worth pricing when geometry or identification must change. Ask each supplier to state sample cost, MOQ and lead time separately for its proposed SKU.

Start with one drawing or size list

Mark the dimensions you have and flag the ones the supplier needs to confirm.
