So far, I'm leaning on the LE's. I love my BMW, but I'm not interested in trying to fit BMW caps on the rims.

I preffer the "plain" because it flows with the rest of the wheel.

However if I plan to choose a center cap that will stand out over the wheels, any of the others look excellent.

Limiteds will look really nice on Time Attacks.

i say high cut -> low -> limited -> vr -> plain
i like the limited a lot, but your car is green.... it would look better on a black or white car. but get whatever u like. i would say either high cut or limited, just because they're limited.
the plain ones makes the volks look fake.

the plain caps make it look like there's something missing.

I voted for the LEs. My second choice would've been the low cuts....actually, I thought the plains look alright. What would these wheels look like with the roundel?

Low cut, btw, just curious, how much do they cost each? I know they're pretty expensive for what it is

What about the Rays center caps? The same ones that come on the ME's? Otherwise, I say the low cut ones.

The LE caps are $129 plus tax and shipping.The other are a little less.

Man, I love the ME caps but I don't think they will match my silver with the ME's polished finish.
