No centercaps with the wheels, also no idea what size they are. Where do I measure to get a proper reading?

just get a tape measure and measure across the face lip to lip.

then measure the barrell to measure width.

why do you have them? you have hondas and those are 5 lug universals.. haha.

The rims on my camaro aren't mine, so I'd hate to be without wheels when the guy comes to pick them up (paid for them months ago and has yet to pick them up)... lol

I've never seen a universal lug BBS wheel, it would have a BBS stamp as well, and I don't recall any requiring a screw for the center cap...

i asked geoff once & i coulda sworn he said they were ultras. BUT judging by ultras website, either they aren't ultras or they're really old.

^ that's def the wheel but it looks like they're a knockoff judging by the universal lugs.

The angles of the lip changes aren't right to be compomotives.

It has the bolts and a small space between the "barrel" and center, but on the back it has small beads spaced out between the pieces. Not sure...? I'm not big on wheels :thinking:

They're really light though... if that helps, lol

Definitely not BBS RSs. I used to have a set and there were tiny engravements of the letters BBS on the back, also on everyone of the 40+ nuts on the outer rim. The system to screw on the centercaps is also very different.

Found these on google:

BBS RS's have a screw on centercap, those have a raised part for a bolt to hold on the center cap. I had some RS's from an infiniti that said "made in Japan for BBS"

Compomotives or Ultra's. but im leaning more toward Ultras.

even if they were BBS' (which they arent) they'd be closer to the RM. calling them RS' is a spit in the face.
