Premium wheel manufacturer BBS made a strong start to 2018 at the 88th Geneva International Motor Show, showing off its alloy wheels on a stand shared with tuner MTM. The momentum will continue over the coming months as BBS displays its distinguished product range at important trade fairs and events around the world. With attractively styled wheels like the new CC-R and the motorsport inspired RT88, plus top scores in leading car magazine readers' votes, the market leadership of the world’s No. 1 premium alloy wheel manufacturer goes from strength to strength in Germany and abroad. With increased international market presence and sales in 2018 as stated goals, the optimisation and expansion of the BBS product range will be underpinned by an increase in production capacity. Meanwhile, the premium wheel manufacturer continues to successfully protect its brand and unique designs in all territories to the full extent of the law. May kicks off in style with the Wörtherseetreffen (May 9 to 12, 2018), the world's largest GTI meeting held in Kärnten, Austria of which BBS is a long standing main sponsor. This event overlaps with Tuning World Bodensee (May 10 to 13, 2018) at Friedrichshafen on Lake Constance where BBS will share a stand with TVW Car Design Exclusive Tuning. “The Tire Cologne” (May 29 to June 1, 2018) is the leading B2B trade show of the tyre industry, and the BBS team is already looking forward to discussions with industry representatives. This show also gives trade visitors the opportunity to learn more about the revised and expanded B2B Webshop. The biggest event of the year by far is the SEMA Show in Las Vegas (October 30 to November 2, 2018) where BBS will put on a display worthy of this spectacular venue. The busy year will wind down on home ground, with the Essen Motor Show (November 30 to December 9, 2018) bringing the 2018 show circuit to a close. Representing the modern face of BBS, the light and dynamic CC-R joined the BBS Performance Line range at the beginning of this year. Its concave style and the lightweight credentials that result from flow forming and milled back spokes make it a complimentary design for a wide range of cars. Depending on the application, BBS provides three different concavities per wheel diameter, and this latest wheel design from the BBS factory in Germany also features the proven stainless steel collision protection rim. The CC-R can be ordered in 19 and 20-inch diameters finished in diamond cut matt graphite, satin black and satin platinum. The laser etched KBA number, BBS logo, and “Made in Germany” designation confirm the CC-R as an authentic BBS family member. Inspired by the classic BBS cross-spoke Motorsports design, the ultra-light two-piece RT88 wheel is the latest addition to the Forged Line. In addition to its forged barrel, the CNC-milled centre star and ultra-light titanium bolts provide the best possible performance on both road and track. A wide range of applications for high-performance cars will debut in 2018, with 19-inch variants planned for the first half of the year, followed by 20-inch applications in the second half. Details of individual wheel type strength performance can be found in the TÜV and technical test data that supports the BBS wheel programme. Customer requests for bespoke racetrack applications are always checked for feasibility. BBS remains the undisputed number one in the readers' polls of well-known automobile magazines, and continues its unbroken run by winning the Auto Motor Sport “Best Brand 2018” award in the readers’ poll. BBS also reinforced its position as the long-standing number one with Auto Zeitung readers by once again taking the title of “Top Brand 2018”. About BBS: BBS is the world's most highly regarded light-alloy wheel brand, a fact confirmed by awards from leading German and international automotive trade journals. Consistent quality at every stage of manufacture - from casting and forging to surface finishing, with a highly controlled temperature regime crucial to the strength of the aluminium - is a BBS hallmark.
