ECS tuning has some fancy blue and white ones for $7 a pop. Not sure if they have different sizes. Maybe you can call them and find out. If not there are stick on ones you could use on top of these.

AngeloB5.5 has these wheels with VW centers... I have these wheels, will be looking for VW centers soon.

 

whats the diameter (in mm) of the audi caps ?

this might be the same one that a dealer showed me here locally. i have to get mine off the rims (requires taking the rims off) so i wont have time to try that out this week, but i will try next week after thanxgiving.

do you sell these? if so, how much do you charge? PM me? thank you for your help on this! i really appreciate it.

 

ok well you know what to do is go find some one with an audi and barrow them, then you will have some... most audi drivers are arrogant assholes anyways and they dont deserve to drive a audi...... thats just my fifitycent...

i have the rims on my car already...and they have the audi centercaps, that i am trying to replace. so no need to borrow. and as far as arrogant assholes, i think that belongs to bmw drivers! :lol:

 

The part # for the VW center cap that should fit those Audi wheels is 3B0 071 213 666. This diameter of this center cap is 60 mm. If you get the VW center caps and want to get rid of the Audi center caps, let me know because I could use them.

 

@jikozi

no I don't sell parts

 

I looked into the same caps and decided that $40+ was not worth it... So I made some custom caps using a rubber plug and superglued silver on black VW logo. Total cost was around $15 and I havent had a problem with them.

id like to see a pic of that...

 

i have to get mine off the rims (requires taking the rims off)

Do you take the wheels off and then push them out with a screwdriver or something from the back?

basically yeah...there is no real good way to dig them out with the rims on the car. and i dont want to chew up the rim, or the cap.

NOT MUCH OF AN UPDATE: i have to order the part. will be at the dealer tomorrow morning, so maybe ill get it sometime this coming week.

 

any updates jikozi?

 

crap...totally forgot about this thread.

here is my bad news so far update:

1. went to the local dealer with one of my audi centercaps and of all the centercaps they had, there was a set that seemed to be close. i bought 4, treid to stick it in the wheel and it went it, but it was loose. you could easily spin it, and it just did not feel solid so i dont know how well that would hold up.

2. went back to the dealer and had them special order another set of centercaps that i was recommended, waited a week to get them, got them and they are prolly about 2mm too big. might be able to force them in, but i dont konw if the tabs would end up breaking or not and i didnt want to risk it, since the dealer wanted $18 for each centercap.

3. just today i talked to a friend in germany, and he will try to see if he can find something there.

im just glad i have been able to return all the caps to the dealer so far.
no luck so far guys...sorry. and my apologies for abandoning this thread!

 

Thanks for the update...
I found some part number suggested for the A4 Sport wheels, called the dealer, they wanted $20 for each one. I said no thank you.... The blue and white ones from ECS are great looking, but thay are not gonna fit... the quest continues...
