Help! I need hub rings for these... [Source for hub-centric rings for BBS RX wheels?]

just got my 20" BBS RX to fit nicely on the M5 BUT the hub rings that are on the wheels are to small for the 74.1mm center bore we have on our cars. i suppose i can get these rings anywhere but how would i know what i would need. i know the car's center bore is 74.1mm but how about the size of the wheel itself? help please. and feel free to comment on the car's look....it rocks my boat but i got to get these wheels hub-centric!

Looks great!
A BBS dealer can give You the right ones.
All parts on BBS rims are located from numbers on your rims.

Figure out what the size is on the wheel and I'll look to see what I have.
I know I have a set for OZ wheels.

Tirerack or local tire ships might have it as well.

Should be only like $20 bucks for a set of four.

i took off the rings off of the wheels and measured the diameter of it from outer edge to out edge and it seems to be 72-73mm (could be 72.6mm as with the rest of the other BMWs). as well all know, our unique hub size is 74.1mm so with the ring on the wheel, it wont fit right through. with the rings off of the wheel, the center bore size of the actual wheel appears to be 82mm or so. i'm quite unsure since i measure these things with a small hello kitty ruler in centimeters (1cm-10mm). i have no clue. for now, its shaking the hell out of my car.

You are driving with the wheels and no hub-centric rings?
