ABOUT US

Expertise and passion for classic designs. 

Maxilite specializes in the development, production and sale of wheels and accessories for classic vehicles of yesteryear. Our goal is to authentically capture the characteristic spirit and beauty of the designs of the 50s-90s and offer them according to modern European quality standards at affordable prices, TÜV certified and fully registrable. 

The production of our high quality retro wheels takes place in established, TÜV certified factories that supply Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) in addition to ourselves.
Although our headquarters is in Switzerland, we have a branch office in Florida.

25.000 WHEELS FOR A WIDE RANGE OF BRANDS

The Maxilite range is constantly growing and covers with 250 different wheels a large number of vehicle brands. It ranges from thoroughbred Italians such as Alfa Romeo, Autobianchi, Lancia and Fiat to British gentelman cars such as Austin, Jaguar, Jensen and Hillman to American veterans such as Buick, Cadillac, Ford and Dodge and established German brands such as Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Porsche and VW to exotics like Jensen, Ginetta and Lotus and long-extinct legends like Mercury, Plymoth, NSU, Sunbeam and Triumph or even the Formula Super Vau racing cars.

THE STORY BEHIND

The success story of Maxilite begins in 2008 in Switzerland: Even after a long search, we could not find the right rims for our Oldladies. The retro rims available on the market from Italy and Great Britain were beautiful, but proved to be flawed. Furthermore, they were not TÜV-certified and thus not registrable. The decision was made: To produce our own retro rims to German quality standards, TÜV-certified and therefore registrable, yet still authentically picking up and reproducing the spirit, finish and style of the original ones.

Walking through our warehouse with 25,000 wheels on stock it´s hard to imagine that it started with a handful of models. Today Maxilite overs a wide range of 250 different wheels of steel and aluminum for the most diverse makes and models of vehicles from 1950-2000 that is growing every year.
