Basic info 
Need for Speed Underground 2Car: Audi A3 Date added: Thursday, 18. February 2010 From garage: Underground Zone Description: BBS Kraftfahrzeugtechnik AG began in 1970 in Schiltach Germany by Heinrich Baumgartner and Klaus Brand as a manufacturing plant for plastic auto body parts. The initials BBS are based on the last names of the two founders and the city in which the company was founded (Baumgartner, Brand, Schiltach). In 1972 BBS pioneered the development of a three-piece racing wheel, a revolution in motosport design. Most recently BBS has engineered the Air Inside Technology (AIT) where hollow chambers are created within the wheel structure to compensate for the small air volume in modern ultra-low-profile tyres, reduce unsprung weight, improve handling dynamics, and increase fuel efficiency without sacrificing strength and rigidity. This innovation has earned BBS Kraftfahrzeugtechnik the Automechanika Innovation Award 2006 in the tuning segment. BBS entered into a technical cooperation agreement in 1990 with ASA, a Korean company that was starting wheel production. BBS has and continues to supply OEM wheel applications to a number of automobile brands. In street vehicles, their products can be seen on brands such as BMW, Audi, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Ferrari, Maserati, Mitsubishi, Rolls Royce, Jaguar, Infiniti, Renault, Subaru, Volkswagen and Volvo. Lexus will soon be using BBS wheels in its IS-F. The cross-spoke design, which superficially resembles a wire wheel, is extremely common on sports cars produced from the 1980s to the early 1990s, and is light in weight compared to many other styles. One of the most notable wheels of them all they have produced was the three piece RS, released in 1983 and would become a popular aftermarket features as well as being replicated by other manufacturers. Another wheel that has since become a popular design as well as being replicated by numerous companies is the RG, the company's first wheel produced, known as Rennsport, a competition use only wheel has been copied by Speed Star Racing for its Formula Mesh series. The company also supplies motorsports applications and is also the largest supplier of wheels for Indy Racing League Series and the main supplier of Formula One teams. Production wheels : * RX * AIR I AI * AIR II CK * AIR II CY * RR * RS-GT * LM (seen on this car) * RX II * CM * CX-R * CH * CH Black Edition * CK * CO * CV I'm a BBS fan and I hope you like this show car as much as I do. Thanx  Tags The Entry's Categories
