I've owned both Recaro seats and BBS wheels - several sets of each.
I was happy with all the seats and wheels.
But, lately, I'd honestly look elsewhere for seats or wheels.
I just think they've let the competition get ahead of them on both price and quality.

They’re not folding. Just a bankruptcy filing. Bride seats costs way more and I’m not sure if they are that much better.

Crazy how companies which partner with major manufacturers for volume sales still suffer from venture capital and private equity vampirism.

ND MX5’s have a Recaro/BBS/Brembo package which is pretty desirable over the higher trim level.

I hear that there is a lot of demand for certain BBS and tons of wait time. I feel like they have demand why aren't they making wheels to fill that said demand?

This news is shocking! It's a tough time for the industry, and I hope both companies can find a way to bounce back.
