Title: Pescara caps - BBS
Post by: Mk5 GTian on June 19, 2012, 06:26:09 am: I'm buying some lovely matt black 18" Pescara BBS alloys from a member, which come with the standard VW centre caps.

Does anyone know which BBS centre caps will fit these please?

Thanks :happy2:

That's annoying. I don't want to have genuine BBS rims and shniedy centre caps!

I'll just stick with VW ones then. :sad1:

I guess I'll stay with the VW ones then, I don't want shniedie fakes.
