Buyer fit
Who this page is for
Buyers preparing their first OEM steel wheel quote request.
Core wheel specification
The first RFQ section should describe the wheel itself. If a drawing is available, attach it. If not, list the measured specification and any sample reference.
- Size, bolt pattern, center bore, offset, and finish.
- Material or application requirement if known.
- Product code, drawing, photo, or current supplier reference.
Commercial and packaging details
The factory also needs commercial context. Quantity, destination, and packing requirements affect quotation, production planning, and shipping discussion.
- Sample quantity, first order quantity, and annual forecast.
- Destination market and destination port if known.
- Carton, pallet, label, barcode, or custom packaging requirement.
What to ask in the first message
Ask for quotation scope, sample possibility, estimated lead time, packaging options, and any missing information the factory needs to confirm.
