Does anyone have floating centre wheel caps fitted and if so how good are they, how much should I pay for them and from where?
 
I don't have them but came across them today while looking for a replacement standard one. Seemed to be coming up at £70 ish each from BMW and same on other sites for genuine ones
 
I have managed to resist the urge to buy a set so far but I think a couple of people on here have them, although I'm sure one reported that one of his had fallen out recently!

As far as I know they have only been available from BMW to date, but here's a link:- https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/143189724938?chn=ps&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=&mkcid=2&itemid=143189724938&targetid=4584894773005086&device=c&mktype=&googleloc=&poi=&campaignid=373799464&mkgroupid=1300722489753525&rlsatarget=pla-4584894773005086&abcId=2145996&merchantid=87779&msclkid=a7befff0cd911d2f0768a102a1e6630a

They may be a bit cheaper from Sopers of Lincoln or Cotswold BMW as they give a forum discount. :thumbsup:

That was me that lost one, hit a pot hole hard.

I got a new set from Cotswold BMW via ebay £ 60.--.

I only fitted the one so have 3 spares as the others are still on and spinning good after 2 years.

I noticed the new set were made of a sturdier black plastic much stronger clips. The previous were a grey plastic.
I rate them = Quality. I beleive they were originally made to fit to the 8 Series as standard.
