BBS Center Caps, Red

BIMMERPOST / Classifieds
Asking Price:
USD 250.00

Location:
✓ Will Ship

Item Interest
I bought a set of brand new caps that don't fit the wheels I wanted them to.

70mm face size
64mm back spacing

I opened 1 to test fit, it didn't go and I didn't pound it for fear of ruining the finish on the wheels. Everything comes in original packaging.

they are real BBS, that's what I paid for them, just trying to break even. I've only had them in my possession for 72 hours. That's shipped price also

and it's not that high of a price, I believe [see link above]

sorry for questioning i just wasn't aware there was something like this out there for such a high price. I guess I just don't understand it.

no problem; just defending/showing my logic in price point.

When buying actual BBS wheels, and you look at that price...it makes sense ha. They aren't cheap by any means

Do you know what wheels these will fit? I have a set of Eurotek LM Reps coming but haven't got caps for them yet.

I think the Euroteks take a 65mm cap but I'm not 100%...

I'm running the eurotek reps also, spoke with MRR wheels (maker of eurotek) and they informed me of it being a 68mm face with 65mm backspacing. I read that someone got the OEM bmw center cap to fit by forcing it in, that was the plan with these but it wasn't going to happen without a rubber mallet so I decided against it. It's close, if you're willing to put some force behind it, i'm sure they'll go--but I was concerned about ruining the finish on my wheels and the center caps.

and btw--you inspired me to get the Kerscher splitter; I'm so pleased with it and the compliments I get from the wheel/lip combo. Thanks for being my guinea pig
