The BBS LM Wheel has built its reputation over decades, drawing directly from touring car racing with its unmistakable mesh design that balances classic style and structural integrity. As a two-piece forged wheel with a forged aluminum center and rim, it benefits from the strength and reduced weight that forging provides, resulting in a wheel that stays rigid under load while improving steering response, acceleration, and overall handling through lower rotational mass. The gold face paired with a diamond-cut lip underscores the precision of its machining and finishing, with every bolt and edge reflecting careful craftsmanship. Rooted in motorsport and engineered with intent, the LM continues to resonate with enthusiasts who value proven performance and enduring design.
BBS was founded in 1970 by Heinrich Baumgartner and Klaus Brand in Schiltach, Germany. The company was established by amateur racers seeking performance gains on the track. Initially, BBS developed fiberglass body panels to reduce weight before shifting focus to decreasing unsprung weight with the introduction of an innovative three-piece racing wheel. This breakthrough positioned BBS as a key player in motorsports, attracting the attention of factory racing programs, including BMW. As the company expanded, road wheels were added to the lineup, and in 1983, BBS launched the original three-piece RS design, a wheel that remains an industry icon. Performance and technology have always been at the core of BBS, with the company’s motto, “Technology Through Motorsports,” continuing to drive innovation. Today, BBS has a global presence, designing, testing, and manufacturing its own products and technologies while maintaining its deep roots in motorsports engineering.
