Are you sure they fit ?

" BBS Caps fit ONLY genuine aftermarket BBS Wheels. They may not fit OEM, Replica,or other "Made by BBS" wheels. Please review the measurements and photographs carefully as center caps are NOT eligible for returns or exchanges. "

I wouldn't put them on. It's like the 135i guys putting Brembo stickers on their front brakes. Sure they're made by Brembo but they aren't "real" Brembo's as in they aren't as good as the aftermarket options offered by Brembo. I see this being the same thing.

On a German forum I actually saw mention that the OEM supplier of the 1M wheels type 359is actually Borbet, not BBS .... (hearsay from a member who said he contacted BBS germany and they denied the rims were theirs!?)

If they fit they will say BBS instead of a Roundel. Very radical change indeed.
