Custom BMW Motorcycle Wheels — S1000RR, R nineT, GS and R18
BMW Motorrad spans M-division track weapons, the R nineT custom icon, globe-crossing GS machines and the R18 big cruiser — four different engineering worlds under one roundel. FLEXIMOTO supplies custom forged and laced wheelsets across all of them, including shaft-drive rear fitments, with every specification engineered per model and confirmed in 3D before production.

What Gets Confirmed on a BMW Fitment?
Six items are engineered and locked at the 3D rendering stage for your exact model:
Axle & hub interface
Axle diameters, bearing seats and hub geometry specified per model and year — an M1000RR and an R18 share a badge and nothing else.
Shaft final drive rear hub
R-series, K-series and GS models put the final drive through the hub itself — the rear wheel is engineered around your model's shaft-drive interface, not adapted to it.
Rotor mounting
Bolt pattern and offset matched to your calipers — dual-disc fronts across the performance and touring range.
ABS & ride-mode sensors
Sensor ring accommodation built into the spec so ABS Pro and dynamic systems keep their inputs.
R nineT custom packages
Café, scrambler or tracker direction — spoke design, lacing pattern and finish specified to your build reference before production.
GS tube vs tubeless
Traditional laced construction runs tubes; GS builds requiring tubeless are assessed per project before quoting — no surprises at tire fitting.

Match the Construction to the Build
Forged 6061-T6 Aluminum
For S-series track work, R nineT customs and fast-road builds — machined designs and deep finishes with the strength-to-weight to match.

Laced — 7-Series Rim + Stainless Spokes
For GS adventure work and R18 classic builds: impact-resilient construction with custom lacing patterns and spoke counts.
About Laced Wheels →Racing program chasing grams? Magnesium forged AZ80 is available for track projects — and full private-label lines via the OEM & ODM Service.
How Fitment Is Guaranteed
M-division track set or an R18 classic, the process is identical:
1. Send your model and year plus target sizes, tires and finish direction. 2. 3D renderings — every interface engineered for your bike and shown for sign-off. 3. Production to the approved spec. 4. Testing under ISO 9001 and IATF 16949 quality systems. 5. Export packing and customs clearance. 6. Tracked shipping to your destination — typical lead ~30 days from contract effect.
The risk sits with the process, not with you
Nothing is produced until you approve the rendering. Every custom wheel carries a warranty, single sample sets are welcome before volume, and an NDA is available for program designs. Payment by T/T; PayPal accepted on sample orders (handling fee applies).
BMW Wheels — Frequently Asked Questions
Which BMW models can you build wheels for?
Wheels are quoted across the BMW Motorrad range — S1000RR, M1000RR and the S-series; the R nineT heritage family; R1300GS, R1250GS and F-series adventure models; R and K roadsters and tourers; and the R18 cruiser line. Fitment for your exact model and year is confirmed via 3D rendering before production.
Can you build wheels for shaft-drive BMW models?
Yes — shaft-drive fitment is a core competence, not an afterthought. On R-series, K-series and GS models the rear wheel is engineered around the shaft final-drive hub interface for your exact model, and confirmed in the 3D rendering before production.
Should I choose forged or laced wheels for a BMW?
Follow the build. Forged 6061-T6 aluminum suits S-series performance work, R nineT machined-look customs and fast-road builds. Laced wheels carry GS adventure setups and R18 classic looks — with tubeless requirements for GS builds assessed per project.
Do custom wheels keep BMW's ABS and dynamic systems working?
Yes. Sensor ring provision is built into the wheel specification so ABS Pro and dynamic traction systems keep reading correctly — confirmed as part of the rendering you approve before production.
What is the minimum order, lead time and warranty?
A single sample set or dealer volume — both are supported. Quotes arrive within 48 hours; typical lead time is around 30 days from contract effect, confirmed per project. Every custom wheel is covered by warranty, with production under ISO 9001 and IATF 16949 quality systems and JWL/DOT certification arranged by the buyer with documentation support.
