BBS Wheels in Kitchener
BBS has been supplying wheels to Formula 1, WRC, and German automakers since the 1970s.

Driving conditions in Kitchener
Open farmland around the region means blowing snow and drifting long after the plows pass. Road salt and winter potholes are the two things that kill wheel finishes here — which is why a separate winter set on tougher rims usually pays for itself.

- OE fitment
- Match bolt pattern, centre bore and offset to your vehicle — diameter alone is not a fitment.
- Ask about TPMS sensors and hub-centric rings when you order; both are easy to forget and both cause problems later.

BBS in Kitchener: common questions
Are BBS wheels available in Kitchener?

How much do BBS wheels cost?
BBS sits in the $$$$ bracket with forged and flow-formed construction. A full set installed also includes mounting, balancing and TPMS work.
Can I run BBS wheels through a Kitchener winter?
Exceptional weight-to-strength, but salt is brutal on any wheel. Rinse regularly, or run a dedicated winter rim-and-tire package and store these for the warm months.
Do I need an alignment after new wheels?
If the offset changes, yes. Different offset changes scrub radius and steering feel, and an alignment protects the new tires.
