What does 'two-piece forged' mean for this wheel?

A two-piece forged wheel is constructed from two separate components that are then permanently joined. This method allows for precise engineering, resulting in a wheel that is both very strong and lighter than many other wheel types.

What is the benefit of a forged wheel compared to a cast wheel?

The forging process uses immense pressure to shape the aluminum, creating a denser grain structure. This makes forged wheels generally stronger and lighter than cast wheels, which can positively impact vehicle performance and handling.

Does this wheel come with a tire or mounting hardware?

This product listing is for a single BBS LM wheel only. Tires, lug nuts, valve stems, and any necessary mounting hardware are sold separately.

Product Details

If you're looking to give your performance vehicle a serious stance and a touch of motorsport heritage, consider these BBS LM wheels. These are iconic, two-piece forged wheels that have been a favorite for decades, known for their strength and lightweight construction. This particular set measures 20 inches in diameter and 12 inches wide, with a 5x130 bolt pattern and a +72mm offset, designed for vehicles that can accommodate such a wide wheel. The center bore is 71.6mm.

The LM series is a classic design, featuring a diamond silver finish on the spokes with a striking diamond-cut machined lip that really makes the wheel pop. Being a two-piece forged wheel means it's built in two separate pieces that are then joined together. This construction method allows for very tight tolerances, resulting in a wheel that is both incredibly strong and surprisingly light. This is crucial for performance vehicles, as reducing unsprung weight can improve handling, braking, and acceleration. The forged process itself starts with a solid piece of aluminum that is subjected to immense pressure, creating a denser, stronger grain structure than cast wheels.

This wheel is sold individually, so be sure to order the correct quantity for your vehicle. When fitting such wide wheels, it's always a good idea to check your vehicle's specific fitment requirements and consider any potential need for fender modifications or suspension adjustments to ensure proper clearance. These wheels are a significant investment, reflecting their premium construction and iconic status in the aftermarket wheel world.
