Onyx Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 Ive got a set of 14 inch BBS RZ wheels on my Arosa (BMW E30 wheels), and ive been searching for weeks for centre caps. They are ridiculously expensive!Ive seen some posts saying that the centre caps from other models will fit too? But i dont know for sure. Has anyone else got these wheels? or had this problem before? Ive been looking on ebay and have found these at the moment which are way cheaper than what I normally see..http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bmw-wheel-centre-caps-bbs-golf-masda-/171391384693?pt=UK_Cars_Parts_Vehicles_Wheels_tyre_Trims_Trims_ET&hash=item27e7b8fc75http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-BBS-Centre-Caps-X-4-/111412084615?pt=UK_CarParts_Acc_Wheels_tyres_Rims_Car_Wheels_ET&hash=item19f0ad7f87Heres a pic of my wheel..

benjiii Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 so confused now, think ill just sell them haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx Posted July 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 tbh they still look great without centre caps, its just a better feeling having them though lol.. I wouldn't sell them because I know their value will increase over time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onyx Posted July 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 know of any good refurb companies? how much it normally cost? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjiii Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 I don't mate, I do them myself, if they got curbing I skim the rim with a dremmel and smooth them over and then paint/polish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx Posted July 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 Oh nice one.. whereabouts are you based mate?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gatesy0093 Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 I have the same wheels with a full set of centrecaps.the top ebay link you posted are not genuine, the clip is completely wrong, they might fit and look ok but then its the fact they arent the real thing.Cant tell about the second link because there is only one picture, you could always ask the guy for some more pictures though.the ones you want look like this Some of the clips are broken but you get the ideaThe "nut" twists and that causes the clips on the back to be pushed outwards which is what locks them onto the wheel. then just twist back to unlock and pull to get off.The ones i have are metal and the nut is plastic, i do think that you can buy metal nuts but if you can then they will be expensive..Hope this helps in any way...Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
