With a 13 inch diameter and approved tire sizes up to 140mm wide, the bgm PRO rim offers a visual and technical upgrade for all Vespa GTS models. Despite the larger dimensions (standard 12 inch), the rim is a real lightweight at just 2900 grams.
RIDE CHARACTERISTICS
With 13-inch wheels and tires of 130/60-13 on the front wheel and 140/60-13 on the rear wheel, the handling is much more confident. The direct response to steering impulses provides agile handling with maximum directional stability when cornering.
OPTICS & BRAKE PERFORMANCE
The light and open design provides a clear view of the brake system. This clearly highlights modified brake components and optimizes the cooling of the brake system.
APPROVAL / ABE / TÜV
The rim has passed and exceeded all the strict test standards required for approval in Germany with flying colors. According to BGM, the high-strength rim is therefore also an ideal basis for vehicles with greatly increased performance. Thanks to the KBA test mark, the rim is registration-free and does not have to be presented separately at a test center.
MOUNTING
Unlike the rims used ex works, the BGM PRO rims are identical for the front and rear. They therefore have different depth dimensions for the fixing bolt holes. For this reason, shorter bolts (M8x35mm) are used on the front axle. On the rear wheel, the ABS tone wheel is not bolted directly to the rim, but (as on earlier GTS models ex works) to the special wheel bolts. We provide mounting kits for the front and rear, which contain all the special mounting parts. These are only included in the complete wheel set (front and rear). When purchasing individual rims, please order the mounting kits (if required) separately (BGM7660MKTF and BGM7660MKTR, see accessories).
The BGM PRO rims are manufactured with high precision and therefore do not require balancing. Balancing may only be necessary when a tire is fitted, depending on the tire. Our complete wheels are delivered balanced.
SC TIP: Tire manufacturers usually mark the lightest point of the tire with a color mark (red or yellow dot, yellow triangle, etc.). This marking should be placed on the position of the valve during fitting. This reduces the necessary mass of the balancing weight to a minimum.
