Looks like BBS RM or RS reps to me. Should have a BBS logo in the center if they are real BBS wheels.

If they are BBS, your best bet is a WTB ad here or scour Ebay. They aren't made any more.

Hint: "Rims" come in 22" and larger sizes, and may as well be spelled "rimz". "Wheels" are what are found on Porsches and other fine automobiles.

You mean the style, right? BBS is still alive and kicking.

looks like these are the caps you need but not the right color . Id suggest getting them while you can . check your measurements though looks like theres different sizes. I dont know whats up with the special screw. Mine have hex head screws. Maby somebody switched them out. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BMW-MSW-by-OZ-O-Z-RACING-SILVER-WHEEL-CENTER-CAP-M289_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp3286Q2em20Q2el1116 QQhashZitem1c03b2d26aQQitemZ120321135210QQptZMotor sQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories

looks very close, but yours has a pronounced "step" in the lip right before the basketweave gold part where the original posters does not. His seem to be more of a gradual "ramp" instead though they do appear to be oz as well..


EDIT: you can see where the OZ sticker was on his wheels. Nice catch Porsche930dude!!
