BBS CI-R Bronze Polished Rim Protector Wheel (20×8.5 5×112 +42)

The one-piece wheel, manufactured through counter pressure casting and featuring a flow-formed rim, showcases a spoke area that has been back-milled and is complemented by a stainless steel rim protector. The optimization of its weight is achieved through FEM analysis.

Performance Line

• Commencing from 1996, BBS has been deeply engaged in the practice of crafting flow-formed wheels. The technique of flow-forming employs a trio of hydraulic rollers to orchestrate a perpetual rotational movement. Accompanied by substantial pressure and heightened temperatures, this method is employed to sculpt the inner rim of the wheel. Through this manipulation of the cast rim’s structural properties, BBS enhances strength, stiffness, and the ability to withstand impacts. Moreover, the flow-forming approach accomplishes a notable “stiffness to weight ratio,” culminating in notably elevated performance benchmarks at a notably reduced expense in comparison to forged wheels

Excellence in Design

• By leveraging state-of-the-art IT infrastructures, BBS showcases its capability to transform design sketches into intricate 3D computer renderings of their wheels. This effectively highlights the distinct characteristics that set their products apart

About BBS

In 1970, two motor racing enthusiasts from Schiltach in Germany’s Black Forest region – Heinrich Baumgartner and Klaus Brand – established BBS. Initially they focused on fabricating lightweight fiberglass body pieces to give their cars an advantage on the racetrack. To reduce unsprung weight even further, they then developed a unique three-piece race wheel which quickly gained attention among professional teams like BMW Motorsports leading to rapid expansion of the company. In 1983 came out with their iconic 3 piece ‘RS’ design–it has been one of most sought after wheels within its industry ever since . Adopting technological advancements derived from motorsport events is at heart of what defines BBS’s mission statement “Technology through Motorsport”.

BBS offers an extensive array of modern wheel rims for a wide range of vehicles, from cars to trucks and SUVs. Their selection includes the BBS Forged Line with single-piece or double-piece casted models; their Performance Line featuring one piece in addition to dual structure Flow Forming varieties; as well as Design Lines low pressure casting disks.

Having its roots in the Black Forest of Germany, BBS has come a long way. They are now making their mark on an international scale and they have been able to create, assess and produce all aspects related to their products or services without relying upon external assistance. Every step is done within BBS itself.
