In Germany, the TUV (their version of our DOT) has to inspect vehicles to a far greater degree than in the U.S. For example, changing from a non-stock wheel to a wider wheel requires proof of destructive testing on the new wheel among other things.

When I sold my Pantera to a man in Germany, I had to locate the wheel manufacturers safety tests and forward them to the new owner as part of his inspection/acceptance process.
