Vehicle Fitment

  • Universal fitment — compatible with any vehicle using a 5x112 bolt pattern, 20-inch wheel diameter, 10-inch width, and +22mm offset
  • Common compatible platforms include Audi (RS4, RS5, RS6, RS7, R8, S4, S5, S6, S7 and other 5x112 performance models), Mercedes-AMG (C63, E63, GT, GTS and other 5x112 AMG variants), Volkswagen (Golf R, Arteon and other 5x112 models), and wider-bodied European performance platforms requiring a more aggressive 20-inch fitment
  • Hub bore is 82mm PFS — BBS Permanent Fitting System hub-centric centering rings and retaining clip are required and sold separately; rings must be matched to the specific hub bore of your vehicle
  • Always verify brake caliper clearance, fender clearance, and suspension component clearance prior to installation — the 10-inch width combined with the aggressive ET22 offset demands careful verification on all applications
  • Vehicles that have been lowered or otherwise modified must confirm adequate clearance before fitment

Fitment Notes

  • This is a universal wheel defined by bolt pattern, diameter, width, and offset — it is not catalogued for a specific make, model, or year
  • The 20x10 ET22 configuration is aggressive — the combination of 20-inch diameter, 10-inch width, and low ET22 offset produces a wide track stance with the wheel face sitting substantially outward; fender, suspension, and inner liner clearance must be verified carefully
  • This wheel shares all specifications with the LM436DBPK and LM436DSPK — the only difference is the Gold center finish (GPK)
  • BBS PFS hub-centric centering rings are NOT included and must be purchased separately; they are required for proper hub centering and vibration-free performance
  • Lug hardware (bolts or nuts) is NOT included; most 5x112 European applications use ball-seat or taper-seat lug bolts — verify seat type and thread pitch for your specific application before purchasing hardware
  • The diamond cut rim lip is a machined aluminum surface protected by clearcoat — avoid harsh, acidic, or abrasive wheel cleaners that can damage the clearcoat and the exposed machined aluminum
  • The 2-piece construction uses exposed rivets joining the forged center star to the forged rim — do not attempt to disassemble; the rivets are a permanent structural and aesthetic feature
  • Sold individually — a complete set of four requires a quantity of 4

Features

  • BBS LM — Le Mans heritage design introduced in 1994 and derived from the BBS racing wheels used by teams at the 24 Hours of Le Mans; one of the most iconic and continuously produced wheel designs in automotive history
  • 2-piece die-forged aluminum construction — a forged center star and a forged rim barrel, independently optimized and joined by exposed rivets, producing superior strength-to-weight performance versus any cast alternative
  • Both the center star and rim barrel are forged from 6,000-series or special 7,000-series Dura aerospace-grade aluminum billet under up to 18 million pounds of pressure — creating a fully dense, homogeneous grain structure in each component
  • Gold center — a rich, warm gloss gold paint on the 10-spoke cross-spoke star delivering BBS's most classically prestigious finish — a direct reference to the Gold LM wheels that have appeared on championship-winning racing cars and OEM applications for decades
  • Diamond Cut machined rim lip — the rim barrel is CNC diamond-cut to expose the bare polished aluminum, then clearcoated for long-term protection, creating the highest-contrast two-tone combination in the LM436 lineup when paired with the Gold center
  • 10-spoke mesh cross-spoke design with a stepped rim lip — the defining visual architecture of the LM; the 10-inch width produces a pronounced rim lip depth for substantial visual presence
  • Exposed rivets joining center to rim — both a structural fastening element and a signature aesthetic detail authentic to BBS LM 2-piece construction
  • 20x10 width accommodates wide tire profiles (typically 275–305mm section widths) for enhanced traction, contact patch, and lateral stability on high-performance European platforms
  • Weight optimized through FEM (Finite Element Method) computer simulation at every stage of design to eliminate excess material while maintaining full structural integrity
  • Designed, engineered, and manufactured in Germany to BBS's complete quality and safety standards

Product Description

The BBS LM436GPK is a 20x10 LM series 2-piece die-forged aluminum wheel on a 5x112 bolt pattern with a +22mm offset, finished in Gold with a Diamond Cut machined clearcoated rim lip. It is identical in every structural and dimensional specification to the LM436DBPK and LM436DSPK — 20x10, 5x112, ET22, 82mm PFS, 37.0 lbs, 2-piece die-forged — distinguished only by its Gold center finish. Gold is the most historically significant color in BBS's LM lineage: the Gold LM has appeared on championship-winning racing cars across Le Mans, Formula 1, and international GT competition since the wheel's introduction in 1994, and its association with prestige, motorsport heritage, and premium European OEM applications has made it the defining BBS color statement for enthusiasts who want to communicate not just performance but provenance. Paired with the CNC diamond-cut polished rim lip, the Gold center creates the most visually striking and warm two-tone combination in the LM436 lineup — the rich, luminous gold against the bright machined silver rim delivers a depth and presence that neither the black nor silver center variants can replicate.

The LM436GPK's 2-piece die-forged construction is identical to all standard BBS LM variants. The center star and rim barrel are independently forged from 6,000-series or special 7,000-series Dura aerospace-grade aluminum billet under up to 18 million pounds of forging pressure, producing a fully dense, homogeneous grain structure in each component before permanent assembly via exposed rivets. FEM computer simulation validates the complete assembled structure throughout the design process. At 37.0 lbs per wheel for a 20x10 forged configuration, the LM436GPK delivers the weight savings that 2-piece die-forged construction provides over cast alternatives at this larger dimension. The 10-spoke mesh cross-spoke design and stepped rim lip deliver the unmistakable LM visual architecture at its widest expression in the 5x112 lineup — the 10-inch width producing a pronounced and deep rim lip that amplifies the two-tone contrast between the gold center and polished barrel.

The LM436GPK uses an 82mm PFS hub bore, requiring BBS PFS centering rings and a retaining clip purchased separately and specified for the correct vehicle hub bore. Lug hardware is not included — most 5x112 European applications use ball-seat or taper-seat lug bolts; verify thread pitch and seat type before ordering. The 20x10 ET22 configuration demands thorough verification of fender liner, suspension component, and inner barrel clearances before installation. The diamond cut rim lip must be maintained with mild soap and water only — harsh or acidic cleaners will damage the clearcoat and the exposed machined aluminum surface. This wheel is sold individually — a complete set requires a quantity of four.
