BBS RS or RM help!!!

[WABIT]

I bought a set of centrecaps from Team Racing Hofmann (eBay shop). Let me take down the measurements now.

Just a plug: I don't have these wheels anymore and I've still got a set of these centrecaps. They're black with gold lettering, genuine BBS items. I have all 4 and they haven't been fitted! Interested?

This is a set of four factory center caps for BBS RE, RC, RE style wheels.

Yeah those won't fit the RS.



A = 70mm
B = ~57mm

Notice the three prongs around the 57mm diameter circle. These are the only ones that fit RS. RM I'm not sure, I think they use a different mechanism. Hang on let me find the huge BBS thread on Vortex.

Edit: pages worth of information, pics, and Vortex bull**** on BBS RS. http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=1022742

Oh, and found another useful site - http://www.purems.com/products/produ...=10&II=77&_cid - you want the ones under style B

Yeah the centre hex nut looks similar to the BBS RS one... though sizing is crucial here.

I know you're probably excited and want to order as much as you can for the Cabrio rebuild, but my advice would be to have a bit of patience and wait until the wheels arrive before looking into centre caps. Then you can take a few measurements from your wheels and go from there

I've got some BBS RS and they use a 70mm centre cap as pictured below:






The diameter of the hole in the hex nut for the badge is 52mm. Check your wheels when they arrive
