TE37SL Center Cap Adapters...from Volk

rantarM3 · 03-05-2014, 11:49 AM

Well, it took a while but it seems Volk finally is producing a center cap adapter for the TE37SL. Check it out:

I ended up having custom made BMW center caps for my TE37SL's (see: http://www.m3post.com/forums/showpos...&postcount=492) but it would have been good to have the Volk product in hand before unertaking that effor.

So how much weight/money did Ray's really save by not machining the center to accept a cap??

Ouch...$200 for all, price of a tire.

Thank you though!

The centercaps tend to run about $80 each. So $50 to run your $80 caps.

King Tut · 03-15-2014, 10:12 PM

Hmm, $130 x 4 = $520. Or you can just do this:

Victory Road Racing Sciences center cap adapters. I got them from IND.

aus · 03-24-2014, 05:28 PM

What's that run?

I just don't understand why Volkswagen didn't just machine in a center cap. Can't cost that much or add any weight.
