    Mine are in process. I requested a staggered milling on the back pad of 10mm and 15mm and they said it was no problem. This will bring final offsets to 30 and 35 respectively. I need to stop procrastinating and get center caps

    According to BBS the white/gold caps are not available for RS wheels, well at least not the RS version with 3 tabs. Do love them though.

    I have seen these old school BMW Motorsport logo's offered. I don't remember what they are called, but I believe it was painted on metal and you have to glue it on, which put me off.

    Not sure if these are such a set?

    I've looked into it. My research has led me to the conlusion that it totally depends on the wheel.

    Mine? I don't know anything about them, the previous owner had sourced them from somewhere. I don't even know what to price them at to be honest.

    look at the rear lip, its exactly the same. looks like they drilled a hole for a valve stem on the back lip and probably welded the front valve stem hole up.

    They aren't. A lot of people still run them and as long as you have them all torqued to spec it should be perfectly safe.
