Probably not as they(I think) are for 15" wheels.

If they did fit they will look crap as the outer rim is flat, BMW BBS caps are not, they have raised sections that aline to the design of the wheels.......

the very centre bit (which the badge sticks on to) just pushes out chris. if you turn the cap upside down, you can just knock the badge off from underneath with a sharp prod.
the actual bmw roundel will peel off. there will probably be some glue residue behind but just stick the bbs/vw badge on top! :wink:
