    I just bought some caps advertised as 56mm outer and 52mm inner (the inside clips) and they fit perfectly.
    They are BBS replica caps, so looks like 55-56mm caps work.

    hi mate, also looking for these.

    where did you end up getting the replica caps from?

    closest i found were: 4 Carbon Fiber BBS Racing CAR Alloy Wheel Center HUB CAP FOR BMW Audi VW 55mm | eBay

    but they are "60mm outer in diameter, 55mm outer clip to clip insert diameter."

    thanks

    The listing on eBay isn't up anymore but the title for it was: BBS CARBON 4 x ALLOY WHEEL CENTRE CAPS 56mm 52mm
    The seller also isn't selling anything anymore.
