Advan RS center caps

Was wondering if any vendor or individual sells center caps for Advan RS. I'm stunned that a single piece of plastic 3 inches across costs $50. It's a total scam! Before I searched, I figured maybe $50 for a set of four. But no! $200 or more! The caps from my OE wheels were too small, unfortunately. Has anybody found them for a more reasonable price, or am I stuck in the last century regarding the price of things these days?

They're not plastic. They're aluminum just like the wheels. The question u should be asking is does anyone sell plastic ones. When u find your answer send'em this way cause I'll need a set

Yeah its sucks got the billet low rise ones, its sucks 200 bucks but it does complete the look, you can get rings "adapters" to fit the bmw rondel on it talk to bavarianx or wsto they can get them for you but trust me I looked everywhere couldn't find anything else.

I have the aluminum rings. One pick was before I installed my Stoptechs.

They look great and complete the look IMHO. Yes, they are expensive and got even more expensive when I received hyper silver and had to paint them.

The wheel vendor I had purchased my wheels from included the rings in the price by mistake. They then tried to charge me afterwards for the rings - I complained to the BBB and got my money back from them. They no longer do business on this forum.

the advan center cap rings are expensive but they really complete the look on the wheels.
Although, i am a big fan of the Advan low caps in Black on the advan wheels.



The issue is that these are items that dealers don't make a profit on and they are always back ordered.
