I wonder if the “genuine” TCR red ringed caps I sourced from e- bay are in fact knock-offs of the wrong size?

Do they have the VW part number on the reverse side? If not then they’re not the genuine article.





Those are Belvedere alloys and forum member @Watts has confirmed the genuine VW red ringed centre caps do fit the genuine VW Belvedere, Brescia and Santiago alloys

Thanks for clearing this up. I’ve obviously been sold something else although they do seem to have all the authentic VW stuff embossed on the reverse. Maybe they just don’t fit Parker’s.

Perhaps something has changed as all the wheels I quoted were originally MK7 wheels, I havent tried a set on my Reifnitz wheels.
