  • Since their inception, BBS has embodied what it means to be a race wheel. If you follow BBS’s extensive history it is easy to see why they’re at the top of the game; they had a hand in creating the RS, LM and many more quality wheels. Even though, they’re one of the largest wheel manufacturers in the world; some are reluctant to accept the brand due to their lack of involvement in today’s car scene. Check out this episode to learn why BBS is STILL the iconic racing wheel.

    I refinish wheels on the side. My best sales have always been BBS branded OE wheels such as BMW’s style 19’s or Bentley’s Mulliner wheels. They are of top notch quality and that is the market that they are into: people looking for the absolute best, money no object.
    Shame that they aren’t working more directly towards new wheels for the community, but from a business philosophy such as theirs currently... I get it. Hone your craft, then move to the next thing.

    I know the BBS Forged wheels are made by using Die Forge techniques, at least they have press machines. Unlike others brands use semi finished forged wheel barrels, then cut them by using CNC. That’s why the BBS is the OG, although other brands also make good forged wheels, but I feel the situation like “iPhone and other smartphones”.

    Car looked like shit, the wheels were dusty too,but those really caught my eye. The wheels had more sould than the car.
