50mm wont fit iirc they will be too small, its 52mm to fit inside the cap. Genuine ones wont fit either i dont think. Thats why i told you to contct that guy that pete knew about who would make up stickers for the caps. Ones the right size. But feel free to try anything you have mentioned. But dont say i didnt warn you ;-)

standard BMW ones without a doubt I have black background M5 centre caps not used and I wouldn't contemplate using them either they're are crap looking
btw price genuine centre caps from dealers if they fit I can't remmeber for definite but they weren't that expensive stevie Edited by stevie53 |

Jerry
that is some difference what a transformation all you need to do is new centre caps to finish it off. I had my wheels refurbed recently and replaced the centre caps made all the difference stevie |

Very nice job I really adore rims when they do have quite an exagerated fleck in the finish, but I agree do the calipers (or Brembo them,,,, you know you want to,,,,,,)
