• Weight: only approx. 3.24 kg (size 3.5 x 17")
• Fits directly onto the original Telelever front fork of the BMW R1250R Exclusive – no modifications required
• DOT E and JWL approved – tested by BST in accordance with TÜV standards (no TÜV homologation)

The ultimate upgrade for your BMW R1250R Exclusive

The BST Panther TEK was developed as a lightweight OEM replacement for BMW’s roadsters and sport tourers, including the R1250R Exclusive. Thanks to its extremely low weight of just 3.24 kg (compared with approx. 8.8 kg for the original BMW rim), you save over 5.5 kg of unsprung and rotating weight – precisely where it matters most. The result: sharper turn-in, less gyroscopic resistance, shorter braking distances and smoother acceleration.

Made with racing technology

BST produces the Panther TEK using the same methods applied in MotoGP and Formula 1. The rims are built from prepreg carbon fibre and then cured in an autoclave under high pressure and temperature. This creates a rim with perfect fibre orientation, minimal resin residue and maximum strength. The hub is CNC-machined from 6082-T6 aluminium and connects directly to the original BMW hub mounting.

Practical benefits

• Up to 60% less unsprung weight
• Better steering precision and stability
• Less braking force required for the same deceleration
• Improved grip and comfort through lower mass
• Sportier look and refined finish

Carbon structures

• Twill carbon – the classic diagonal weave pattern, recognizable as pure motorsport. Subtle depth and a timeless appearance.
  
• Forged carbon – a modern, marble-like structure with randomly broken fibres. More contrast, exclusive and high-tech.
  

Finishes

• Glossy (high-gloss) – deep shine that makes the carbon sparkle in the light.
  
• Satin (semi-matte) – a silky sheen like you know from BMW HP Carbon.
  
• Matte (ultra-matte) – no shine, no reflection. A pure, stealth look with maximum aggression.
  

Colour options with ink coating

Every BST Panther TEK wheel can optionally be finished with a colour-tinted ink coating. This transparent coating adds a subtle colour tone to the carbon without concealing the weave. The carbon remains visible while gaining a unique look and depth. All colours are available in Twill or Forged carbon, with your choice of finish: Glossy, Satin or Matte.

• Red – fiery glow with a visible fibre structure.
  
• Blue – cool, high-tech and modern.
  
• Green – fresh and eye-catching.
  
• Gold – luxurious with a warm metallic sheen.
  
• Violent Violet – dark purple with changing colour depth.
  
• Orange – bright, sporty and unique.
  
• Black (ink black) – deep black with a visible carbon pattern.
  
• Chameleon – blue, green and purple blending into one another in changing light.
