The BBS SUPER-RS is arguably the most iconic BBS Japan forged wheel ever produced — a two-piece design that defined the premium aftermarket forged wheel category in Japan and remains a reference point for collectors and enthusiasts worldwide. Its multi-spoke face, signature BBS medallion centre, and two-piece construction are immediately recognisable after more than three decades of production.
Unlike many two-piece designs that use cast outer barrels, the BBS SUPER-RS uses a fully forged inner disc mated to a precision-spun outer barrel, bolted with aerospace-grade hardware. This gives the wheel both the visual depth of a two-piece design and the structural integrity associated with forged manufacturing.
Hodoor World specialises in sourcing non-catalogue dimensions for the BBS SUPER-RS. Two-piece construction makes the SUPER-RS particularly flexible for unusual offset or width requirements — the inner disc and outer barrel can be specified independently. Contact us at [email protected] or via WhatsApp at +44 7488 818747. We also offer an AI Wheel Design Service if you want a custom spoke pattern or finish concept designed before production begins.
BBS Japan offers the SUPER-RS in a range of precision finishes, each applied to both the inner disc and outer barrel at the Japanese manufacturing facility:
The two-piece format used in the BBS SUPER-RS offers specific advantages for demanding applications. Unlike a single-piece monoblock where every dimension is fixed at the time of forging, the SUPER-RS's inner disc and outer barrel are produced separately and joined during final assembly. This allows:
The joining hardware on BBS Japan's two-piece wheels uses aircraft-grade stainless steel bolts rated to far exceed any load the wheel will experience in road or track use. Every assembled unit undergoes BBS Japan's standard quality inspection before shipping.
The inner disc of the BBS SUPER-RS is produced using the same closed-die forging process that BBS applies to its single-piece motorsport wheels. The aluminium billet is subjected to pressures exceeding 5,000 tonnes, compressing the alloy grain structure and creating a component that is structurally superior to anything achievable through casting. This forged disc — mated to a precision-spun outer barrel — gives the SUPER-RS the strength of a forged wheel with the dimensional flexibility of a two-piece assembly.
The BBS SUPER-RS two-piece construction makes it particularly well suited to vehicles where standard monoblock fitment is restrictive:
| Model | Construction | Face Design | Key Advantage |
|---|---|---|---|
| BBS SUPER-RS | 2-Piece Forged | Multi-spoke | Custom offset + width flexibility |
| BBS FI-R | 1-Piece Monoblock | 5-spoke | Lightest weight option |
| BBS SUPER-RS | 2-Piece Forged | Classic multi-spoke | Iconic heritage design |
| BBS LM | 2-Piece Forged | Multi-spoke | OEM heritage, many finishes |
| BBS RG-R | 1-Piece Monoblock | Twin-5 spoke | GT motorsport specification |
If the standard BBS SUPER-RS specification doesn't match your requirements, Hodoor offers a custom forged wheel manufacturing service — giving you access to unique finishes, non-catalogue barrel depths, and custom hardware specifications. You can also use our AI Wheel Design Service to visualise your concept before production begins.

Q: Is the BBS SUPER-RS a fully forged wheel?
A: The inner disc of the SUPER-RS is precision-forged from aluminium alloy. The outer barrel is precision-spun from aluminium. Both components are manufactured in Japan by BBS Japan Co., Ltd. and assembled using aerospace-grade hardware. The forged inner disc is the structural core of the wheel and carries the same certification standards as BBS Japan's single-piece forged products.
Q: Can the BBS SUPER-RS barrel width be customised?
A: Yes. The two-piece construction of the SUPER-RS allows the barrel section to be specified in a range of depths, enabling custom widths and offsets that would be impractical in a single-piece forged wheel. Contact our team at [email protected] for custom specification pricing and lead times.
Q: Are the barrel bolts on the BBS SUPER-RS safe for track use?
A: Yes. BBS Japan uses stainless steel aircraft-grade hardware for all two-piece wheel assemblies. The bolt specification is rated to loads substantially beyond any encountered in road or track use. BBS Japan recommends periodic inspection of barrel hardware as part of routine wheel maintenance — typically at each tyre change.
Q: How do I care for the BBS SUPER-RS finish?
A: Use pH-neutral wheel cleaners only. Avoid alkaline or acid-based products. Polish finishes benefit from a dedicated wheel sealant applied every 6 months. Two-tone finishes — where the disc and barrel are different colours — require care to avoid cross-contaminating finishes during cleaning. Use separate applicators for each surface.
Q: What is the delivery timeline for the BBS SUPER-RS?
A: Standard lead time for the BBS SUPER-RS is 4–10 weeks from confirmed order, depending on specification, finish, and current BBS Japan production scheduling. Hodoor World maintains direct communication with BBS Japan and can provide updated lead time estimates at any point during the order process.
Q: Can BBS SUPER-RS wheels be used as a matched set with different offsets front/rear?
A: Yes. A staggered setup — where front and rear wheels share the same disc finish but use different barrel depths to achieve specific front/rear offsets — is one of the most common configurations for the BBS SUPER-RS. This is particularly popular on rear-wheel-drive performance vehicles with wider rear tyre requirements. Contact us at [email protected] for staggered set pricing.
