Hi all,
I've found a set of BBS caps at the back of the garage but as I don't currently have any related wheels to test fit them against, how do I distinguish between 14 & 15 inch caps? I can't remember which they are!
Is there a particular part number or what is the diameter of a 15" set as opposed to a 14" set?
Anyone confirm for me please?
Cheers, Nick

The caps for a 15" Eoroweave BBS are 171mm and the BMW part number I believe is 36132225376.

it's possible to tell by eye.
the 14in versions have raised triangles like this
the 15in versions are more of a pentagon shape,
