Hi
I have just received a set of the 18" wheels. I know a few others have also bought these wheels - anyone found any BMW badges the correct size to stick on the hub cap?
I can only find 64mm ones (need 68mm) or poor replicas from China!
thanks
Paul

Loads on ebay. Example below -

Wouldn't worry too much about them quality wise- I have a mixture of OEM and "fakes" for my winters (with the roundel and no "BMW"). They are just plastic inserts and both are pretty basic.

Ok thanks i was just concerned whether these would fit after market wheels but just ordered some for a princely sum of £6.88

I've got the "99" style 18 inch alloys.
The wheels from Tyremen look like a straight ( and good high quality!) copy and will have the same bore so shouldn't be a problem.
Good luck.
