          I would bet that BBS will just be bought by someone else. BMW has been getting wheels from alot of different companies for many years. shit, Borbet makes some of the new X5 wheels.

            It probably won't end up being that big of deal. My guess is that all of the wheels will still be available. I doubt they just forget about the whole line. Car companies get bought all the time and not much changes. I suspect the same will happen here.

              Because BBS prices weren't high enough for me already. Now ill never afford anything BBS except for 14" basket weaves lol.

                I don't know what you guys were reading but it looks like the aftermarket division and high end oem will stilll be made. They are just cutting out the low end stuff.

                    Says Ronal is taking over the OEM Germany wheels and they're cutting back focusing on motorsports, US market and aftermarket.

                    Everything will be fine! We probably won't even notice a difference.

                      Sti's have already got rid of BBS. They now come with Enkei wheels to lower the price of the Sti

                            Yea they are now in a position to be bought because depending on how they filed, it would be cheaper for someone to pick them up (not so much baggage.)
