An often-cited Oscar Wilde quote is frequently modified by shortening it, which has the effect of fundamentally changing its original meaning.

“Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery …….

…….  that mediocrity can pay to greatness” – Oscar Wilde.

This quote is highly pertinent and relevant to our products, which are occasionally not just imitated but produced as visually indistinguishable copies.

At MSW we do not feel flattered in the slightest, instead we acknowledge the mediocrity and absence of professional ethics of those who would consider themselves as our industry peers, and remain confident that the vast majority of MSW’s clients place a high value on the superior quality and engineering excellence inherent in our HD armoured wheel rims, qualities that are unlikely to be present in imitations.

MSW’s HD armoured wheel rims are produced in state-of-the-art facilities that are accredited by TUV and VIA, ensuring the highest possible standards. The aluminium used is sourced exclusively from Emirates Global Aluminium, guaranteeing premium quality. Our comprehensive quality control process includes X-ray testing, leak testing, impact testing, and salt spray testing to ensure each wheel maintains its safety, integrity, and longevity when fitted to armoured vehicles.

It is essential that when offered similar or identical HD armoured rims, or any rim marketed as being suitable for armoured vehicle use, that clients request validation of not only the load rating of the product being offered to them but also of the grade and source of the raw materials used in its construction. The accreditation of the manufacturing facility itself and its in-house testing certifications are equally critical. Following a comprehensive validation process ensures reliability beyond merely the number stamped on the rim!
