    Yes, i've searched and can't find a straight answer. I've seen 70MM 80MM 55MM, someone please enlighten me on what i need. I'm looking for the BBS caps instead of the OEM VW ones. What size do i need

    pic for reference, just the bbs piece.

    I think they're 80mm...but I'm not positive. I'm also in the market for some BBS ones and will post up when I find out the correct answer

    *80 mm is the correct size. They can be paired with the existing surrounding or these

    I know we have a "STYLE C" cap, so it looks like 70mm is the number

    ^edit: beaten by the angry guy

    They are 80mm, as stated before. You should be amazed at your own stupidity and lack of thought to search and find the CORRECT answer.

    I ended up finding a nice set of four 80mm polished BBS caps (09.24.410) for under $100. The polished ones have been discontinued so they will be getting harder and harder to find.
