Problems with BBS center caps

CarleeSWE · 06-21-2012, 07:48 PM

I own a set of BBS E28 with the odd centerhub size diameter of 74.1mm. Not even BBS Germany have any center caps for these wheels, so now what

I really want Red/Gold logos in the center, ideas anyone? Is there any adapters for this?

74.1 center bore is for the E39's. (97-04 5series). Is the front where the center cap a 74.1 as well? It should be only the center bore in the rear.

Yes that's the odd thing, center bore on all four wheels is 74.1mm

All four wheels should have the same center bore, it would be odd if they were different. Simple fix, run a hub-ring from a 74.1 to a 72.6. But I don't think the center cap area has the same size as the center bore, it should be smaller since it tapers in. I may be wrong though.
