cheers for looking mate, ill see how i get on with the new bbs tool tomo (they are not a good design for the RC rims at all)



Considering the wheels themselves are nice looking you'd think they would have come up with a better tool for removing the centre caps  :undecided:

Is it another half moon type you're having or have they revised it?

I got a BBS tool from a Jaguar dealer a couple of weeks ago, it works really well and was only £3.50!!! If anyone would like the part number it is MXD6160AA.

i dunno what type it is till i get it mate, VW leeds got bought out as richard alexander went bust, they now dont offer next day delivery for parts but seen as my mates work their and i was desperate he will have it for the morning, ill see what type it is then, costing me £20!

your right about the tool, terrible for such a nice/expensive rim


the one from jag, does that fit the anniversary caps then ?

brilliant find mate, just have to find a Jag dealer near me now. Think the nearest one is a good 45 mins drive away.

Went to my local jag dealer (which was funny, but another story) Went in the MK4 not the MK3 so i could check the wrench when i got their, it was a special order part tho.

picked up this little fella for the great sum or 3.52 UK pounds  :laugh:

BBS wrench, fantastic quality and a perfect fit, even has little indentations for the cap

this is a MUST for all RC owners
