These are some of the best CLS pics that I have ever seen. I wish I could hire him to shoot my car. That second pic is a work of art, and the car looks great. the lorinser skirts look great.

what is that about? Not to rain on the parade, but can anyone verify if Sevas turned the corner on the quality issues they were faced with concerning their wheels. I've read some stories.......... cracking, breaking, etc.. Not a good look for such an exclusive wheel.

You'd be suprised with the right photo software and a little patients; you can do magic, but those photos of the cls are very clean.

Thank you for your comments and feedback. One of our key initiatives in becoming a sponsor of this forum board was to receive positive and negative reaction to our products. We strongly believe that the ultimate gauge in our success is directly related to the perception of our customers and the market place. We certainly don’t shy away from this information as we believe that perfection can not be achieved without valuable feedback from our customers. It is also important to mention that we intend to apply this information into our process to ensure our customer’s interests are at the core of every design.

We’d like to stress that safety and quality are at the core of every wheel we build, and for that reason we ensure that our factories are VIA or DOT certified. In addition to these certifications, we also work closely with US government testing facilities to ensure fatigue and metallurgy testing meet government regulations.

Although, we strive to maintain the highest level of quality across all our products it is important to note that all wheels regardless of quality, design, or material are subject to damage given the conditions they are subjected too. In some cases accidental damage or improper use have played a part in these cases. The nature under which these products are used will on occasion subject the product to forces outside normal operating conditions. Situations like these have been experienced with OEM wheels from prestigious automobile manufactures including BMW and Mercedes Benz and we invite you to visit the links below for additional information regarding those cases.

Over the last several months the overwhelming demand for Sevas one-piece wheels has created the need for additional production capacity. In addressing this issue, our Sevas one-piece production has shifted its production to new facilities, although we had planned on a faster transition to our new location the process has taken longer than anticipated and some of our models are backordered. Our forged line is assembled in the USA and come with T6061 centers and stainless steel fasteners. Although the assembly, testing, and final inspection is performed by our US team, we have used services or components from other US suppliers that may have facilities outside the US. We’d like to set any concerns to rest by stating that we will stand behind our warranty and address issues of quality covered by our warranty.

Sevas Wheels backs each of their products with a one year warranty against cosmetic flaws and a lifetime warranty on structural defects not caused by improper treatment. We invite you to visit our website for additional information regarding our product warranty. If you have additional questions or require further assistance please feel free to contact us at 305-971-6517. In closing, please be assured that our commitment to quality is only overshadowed by our unyielding dedication to customer satisfaction.

Thank you once again for your feedback and please don’t hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns.

cake, i haven't heard of any of these issues but your right. who wants to spend mad "cake" for some rims and have them crack. it would be different if the were like a stack or something.

2007 cls 550
Cake, i have seen all kinds of wheels bend and crack. everything from bbs,hre, even 360 (the bent rim) as he shown on the cls55 board.
if you live in ca. then the chances of you bending a wheel are slim. if your like me and in ny you will know that not matter if its a stock wheel or a $2,000. when you hit that pothole just right there goes your wheel!

Point taken and thanks for the detailed response and in no way am I trying to dis-credit the wheel. It's one of the best I've seen on the Merc's along with 360Forged.

thanks a bunch and x-cellent shots of that 219, keep'em coming
