CSL rep centre caps

[samZ4M]

Genuine 68mm centre caps on my CSL reps from CMWheels sit like this, it doesn't look right. Should I get 65mm? Surely it should be flush with the wheel?

I have the reps from CMWheels and my caps from EBay sit flush and are 68mm

Looking at the side profile, they are sitting 'correctly'. What caps did you buy Lynchy?

I'll have a look and see if I can find a link

Mine are the same as yours Sam and it's really frustrating! I wanted flat ones so it all looked OEM

I can't find a link but I think they came from Amazon, get the 10 pin ones

Mine are 10 pin. Looking at the difference, it's clear the 'click' is wrong.

Looking on RealOEM there are 2 part codes: http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/showparts?id=BT93-USA-07-2005-E85-BMW-Z4_M32&diagId=36_0977

The part code for CSLs is the same as what I got: http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/showparts?id=BL96-EUR-08-2003-E46-BMW-M3_CSL&diagId=36_0698

I've asked the seller, who is a BMW dealer, so may get an answer. I'll fit the wheels sans centres incase I can return them. Infact, the ones on my old wheels might fit, so I'll play about.

Just remember that your (mine also) wheels aren't original csl ones though, could be the issue...
