I am just curious where these rumors got started? BBS is still in business and still makes the wheels and is far from bankrupt. We just placed a large order with BBS last week.Originally Posted by demigod

According to a reputable source, it seems like Tirerack likes to pass along these type of rumors every now and then to up their sales numbers.
The forged wheels come from Japan and not Germany so the bankruptcy doesn't affect the LM's. BBS wheels are produced in cycles meaning they try to produce a certain amount of wheels to meet what they think the demand will be for a certain time period. If inventory is depleated during that time, then you'll just have to wait until the next cycle comes around. The LM's are the #2 seller in the US so it wouldn't make sense to discontinue them.
There should be plenty of LM 154/155 at BBS USA right now. I spoke to the tech director at BBS last week and IIRC there were 50+ in stock. Another member and myself had been waiting forever for our order which finally arrived 2 weeks ago.
Now is the time otherwise you might have to wait again.

i think BBS Germany filed for reconstruction, but not bankruptcy. this is old news anyway. they'll still be around.

yea, his wheels are the champion edition. The original champion edition/limited edition LM. The reason I say this is because the ones that were in production from Nov-April 30th was the "retro" of the original they released back in 2002. They are pretty much identical tho except the new ones have those cool red bolts too.Originally Posted by carlssoncclass
