As question, I am replacing the knackered BMW emblems on the middle of my BS 15" X-Spokes caps, question is are they 50mm or 60mm

Anyone know?

Cheers fella's!

fffffffftttttttttt in your dreams Ԛ£2

daaan saaaf they are Ԛ£4 at least

get some from tamworthtraders (or something) on Ebay; they get them in from Germany I think.

Be patient (i.e don't bid over cos a new set comes on every week) and you can get a set of 4 cheaper than the dealers, and they ARE original quality.

Or if someone in the frozen North can get them cheaper, I'm all ears.

Just got back from Barons BMW, as said, was just over Ԛ£11 all in. Funny as the ones I had on order were Ԛ£15! BMW cheaper than expected once again!

Oh, and new badges make a nice difference on the alloys!! Ԛ£10 well spent.

i just replaced the badges on my 14" BBS and they were 70 mil ..!

I bought mine off e-bay for Ԛ£1 each and Ԛ£1 postage and when they arrived there were 5 in the envelope not 4 ...so i have a spare for when some kid nicks one...!

yay..!

dont mean to be cheeky but perhaps nipping outside to your car with a ruler would have been quicker...
