    BBS has been around for decades coming out with iconic wheel designs that now flood the euro scene and are easily recognizable around the world. BBS wheels have always been at the top of the wheel industry, but they don't make new wheels. How is that possible? Today, Alex touches base on a topic everyone has been waiting for and explains why bbs does not make new wheels

      Question for you - do you modify your exhaust? Power gains are nominal as long as it's not a serious bottleneck, so I'd say a majority of people do it for sound. Do you have an aftermarket exhaust/downpipes/etc?

    • @decayingsam
      @decayingsam Před 4 lety +68

      SmarterBotting Yep! While I am deaf, I do have a cochlear implant, which lets me hear nearly as well as any hearing person. However, because I got it implanted recently, I still have some difficulty understanding speech. though, I am 100% able to appreciate the sound of an aftermarket exhaust system :)
