according to my math, the ebay center caps from the link will fit. I'm going to order them and I will keep you posted on fitment. I think the black and silver are an obvious choice.....thinking about blue lug nuts too!!!

For the record, 70mm BBS center caps will NOT fit IS-F wheels and vice versa for IS-F center caps on BBS wheels. Had my local parts manager order an IS-F center cap back in May or June to see if it would fit one of my RK's, and it was too small.

This is comedy because BMW, Mercedes, and Porsche customers will spend $6000 on a set of forged three-piece wheels and then put an OE center cap in it.

Example: HREs with BMW Roundels in the middle. Weirdos!

Let's call it what it is - 62mm OD, 60mm ID. BTW, centerbore on the wheel is 60mm as well.
