BBS STI Wheels Info Needed.

Hi guys,

Could anyone who has the BBS STI alloys do me a favour please?

I need the part number off the back of one of the BBS (not the STI) badges and if possible if you could also measure the front diameter and the rear fixing tabs/clips diameter please. It needs to be exact in Millimeters not inches please :-)

I have a set of Limited edition JDM BBS alloys and struggling finding BBS caps to fit.

Many Thanks.

Darren

Ps If you have any for sale PM me.

Re: BBS STI Wheels Info Needed.

According to my old eyes, the S# on back reads - Fluke PA 66 +GF30, #5624012. The badges measure, front diameter - 2.187 to 2.193, rear diameter - 2.023 to 2.027.

I hope these help,

Ray

I have the SVX optional BBS wheels on my Aust car, and I got a new set of center badges from a seller in Eng, on E bay. He had all the center badges.

Re: BBS STI Wheels Info Needed.

Thanks guys,

Nassir, don't go to any trouble I have the measurements I need thanks.

Thank you Ray that's great, doing a conversion to millimeters I may just be able to get away with those.

Harvey, I don't have any centre caps at all and they were a limited run of wheels for a tuner in Japan so are a slightly odd size so even getting aftermarket caps to put a badge on has so far drawn a blank. I think they probably had the tuners badge not a BBS one and that is the issue.

BBS have been absolutely no help whatsoever which has surprised me for a company that sells itself of quality, obviously that doesn't filter down to customer service.

The STi center caps are style "a" and are 56mm on the face and 53mm on the back.

The part number listed a few posts up "5624012" is the number found on the back but you will get Black/Gold center caps if you use that number. The part number to order matching Black/Silver caps is "0924257"

All the STi BBS wheels ('04-current) use the same size center caps


Edited for convenience:
