    Default Center Caps

    Hey just a quick question. I'm missing the basketweave center caps on my 1989 535i and looking at purchasing them on eBay. Would E30 center caps fit? I would appreciate your input.

    No, E30's won't fit. You will have to use centers from 15" basketweave. E30's are 14" except for iX and M3 models.

    I got the center caps for my 15" bottlecaps at BMA.

    And, it's important to point out that the iX (I don't know about the M3 wheels) use a different center cap than the basketweaves on the 5-series.
