Developed specifically for the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon
This wheel set was specifically designed for Jeep Wrangler Rubicon models from 2009 onward and matches the truck's original chassis and suspension perfectly. Thanks to the exact ET value of 42 mm and the OEM-specific bolt pattern of 6 x 135 mm, this set fits without further modifications. The standard Jeep TPMS sensors can simply be transferred to these wheels, so you do not lose any functionality.
More than a wheel: a technology platform
The GT TEK is not an ordinary wheel. It is a techno-mechanical masterpiece representing 20 years of R&D. BST originally started in motorsport, but grew into the world's largest manufacturer of carbon wheels. The GT TEK is the result of that evolution: the world's first 100% carbon hollow-spoke automotive wheel. Thanks to advanced materials science, aerodynamics and production processes such as those used in Formula 1 and aerospace, BST brings unmatched performance to the road and track.
The GT TEK is designed to optimize the critical properties of a wheel: weight, bending stiffness, rotational mass and safety. While conventional alloy wheels often involve a compromise between strength and mass, the GT TEK offers the best of both worlds: up to 60% lighter than standard alloy wheels while being 13 times stronger than aluminum. This combination results in a directly noticeable advantage in acceleration, braking distance, steering precision and grip.
The BST GT TEK is not only functional, but has also received prestigious recognition: at the SEMA Show 2021, this wheel won the award for “Best New Product in the Wheel and Related Products”. It thereby officially joined the rare category of ultra-light automotive components - a class in which hardly any other road-legal wheels exist.
BST uses only high-quality carbon fiber structures sourced from the same supply chains as the aerospace industry. Each GT TEK wheel is manufactured with the utmost precision and individually tested. The production process is fully ISO 9001:2015 certified and audited by TÜV Rheinland. Every wheel has a unique serial number with complete material and production traceability.
This technology is now also used on some of the world's most exclusive supercars, such as the Donkervoort D8 GTO, the Ariel Atom, the VUHL 05 and even the Delage D12 - voted the most beautiful car in the world in 2020. The arrival of the GT TEK in the Porsche 991 GT market means you can now benefit from that same technology - in your own car.
BST is not just a manufacturer. It is a visionary brand that is not satisfied with what already exists. As they say themselves: “We didn’t just break the mould. We shattered it.” The GT TEK wheel is tangible proof of that.
More than just weight savings
Weighing only 8.2 kg per wheel, this set offers a major weight reduction compared with traditional alloy or steel wheels. This means not only better acceleration and braking performance, but also improved handling and less stress on your suspension system.
In addition, a carbon wheel filters vibrations, noise and impacts from the road surface more effectively. This contributes to a quieter, more comfortable driving experience - especially on poor road surfaces or in off-road situations.
Technology from aerospace and motorsport
BST manufactures its carbon wheels according to the strictest standards from the aerospace and Formula 1 industries. Each wheel is produced under ISO 9001:2015 certification and has a unique serial number for complete traceability. Thanks to the hollow spokes and advanced resin layers, these wheels can withstand extreme temperatures and loads without the risk of deformation or cracking.
Long-term investment
The Tuff TEK wheel set is not only an aesthetic improvement, but also an investment in durability. The carbon structure is 13 times stronger than aluminum and resistant to impacts, damage and temperature fluctuations. And because the surface finish consists of a strong epoxy layer, minor scratches or curb damage can often be repaired easily without structural damage.
Q&A – Frequently asked questions
Does this set fit directly on my Jeep Wrangler Rubicon?
Yes, this wheel set is a direct replacement for OEM wheels on Jeep Wrangler Rubicon models from 2009 onward. No spacers or modifications are required.
What is the difference compared with alloy wheels?
Carbon wheels are up to 60% lighter than aluminum wheels and offer superior strength, less vibration and improved driving performance.
Is this set suitable for heavy-duty use?
Yes. The wheels have a load rating of 862 kg per wheel, which is more than sufficient for heavy loads and off-road use.
Can I use my original TPMS sensors?
Yes, the wheels are compatible with the original Jeep TPMS sensors. These can easily be transferred by a professional mechanic.
Can I choose from multiple finishes?
Yes, the BST GT TEK wheels can be customized according to your preferences in both finish and color. They come standard in classic Twill woven carbon, with a transparent coating that beautifully emphasizes the depth of the carbon weave. For those looking for something unique, there is also the option of an exclusive Forged Carbon version - recognizable by its marbled look with more organic lines.
There are three possible surface finishes: high-gloss, matte or satin (silk gloss / semi-gloss). Each finish highlights the carbon in a different way - from bold and glossy to understated and tactile. The standard color is 'Black', in other words carbon with a transparent clear coat, but for extra character you can choose a tinted coating in Gold, Red, Green, Blue or even a striking Chameleon finish, in which the carbon changes color depending on the light.
In all cases, an ink coating is used, allowing the structure of the carbon weave to remain clearly visible while adding extra depth and an attractive color.
Custom colors are of course also possible; contact us if your desired color is not listed here - almost anything is possible.
Is this legal for road use?
Absolutely. These wheels have been approved according to DOT E and JWL standards and are suitable for road use in Europe and the US.
