        I'll confirm with the factory. I believe this smaller cap size just takes the convex roundel stickers. I'll post up that info asap.

        Once I find out for sure, if people want to get them through me they can, and I can just put them in the box (save on shipping).

            We were originally hoping for an end of July shipment (a very aggressive shipping date on their end). I believe it was because of how the groupbuy coinidently lined up with a production cycle. With the extra 5 day delay, we've missed a cycle, so They said it could be Mid August before they are here. Thats a 2 week maximum delay. We simply didn't have enough people 5 days ago, so it was that or nothing. 1.5 months is still faster then their normal production cycle and that includes the shipping to me. (E30 m3 wheels were 2.5 months).

            So early to mid August is what we are looking at :D

                  I am not concerned with the thread design, i will make it work. What I am asking is... The center diameter. Refer to image.

                        I think you can buy stickers, actually i know you can buy stickers to achieve that. I have nice BMW roundel stickers on my Dinan center caps.

                            So, the anthracite wheel is the same as the wheel that we are getting right. Can we get an official weight.

                            I believe the only weight i saw was for a 17x9...

                              with the 4 lug changes I think they'll be a little over 17.0lbs The sample they sent me was before a revision was made to get it to pass the strength tests so it's not 100% accurate. the 17x8's for the e30 m3 was around that weight as well.

                                Is this GB closed?

                                Also one thing I did not catch was if these were hub centric (57.1).
