Floating Center Wheel Caps

ItsConnor · 04-25-2023, 10:25 PM

If anyone has installed the floating wheel caps on your G8X, where did you purchase and would they still fit the 2024 M4 comp?

Been looking for 20 minutes and figured everyone here would know best.

Forzanerazzurri · 04-25-2023, 10:28 PM

Dealer, IND, Paddleshifterz, etc. They will fit.

Got mine on Amazon from “The BMW Store” for $105, but looks like they are $94.50 right now.

I have a like new set I'll sell. Put them on the car for a day, but prefer my 50th anniversary caps.

So I know that bimmerplug gets some serious flack and some of it is probably warranted but I bought their 50th anniversary floating caps because I couldn't see paying $565 for the ind version. I'm quite happy thus far

Which lug bolts are those?

yocubed · 04-26-2023, 04:38 PM

Acer titanium. I have the 43mm version since I'm running 12mm spacers

What's the deal with these 50th anniversary floating center caps. Is ind the only one selling them now? Is there anywhere else to buy them? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Honestly didn’t see anywhere else to get them when looking just now, $550 is insane just to have a modified logo

I had my guy make them. Pain in the ass but he got them done!

Good stuff!
Gotta say that wheel is perfection

Thearborcollection · 11-30-2023, 10:16 PM

Most definitely. Hand made for the car.

Vinnrox250 · 03-04-2024, 07:58 PM

Sorry to bring back such an old post. Has anyone else found a better deal than IND’s $565 for anniversary floating caps. I get it’s quality, but steeeep. And bimmerplug is not an option.

That hard to do DIY? I just feel $565 is a a bit much for what typically runs under $200.

Get the regular floating ones for like $100 and get the 50th anniversary emblems/stickers from aliexpress

Hahaha. That’s a cheap hack! Kinda like it,but feel like it wouldn’t last. What’s the Quality of the stickers? I was thinking buy regular floating and trying to heat and remove normal logo, and then doing the same to the 50th year to apply on OEM floaters. Gotta be what Ind did.

They're like $5 you can replace them every month and it'll still be cheaper than from ind.

That’s the truth!! I get their quality is top notch, but they are insane.

Vinnrox250 · 03-12-2024, 06:17 PM

Update. Making my own. Wasn’t that hard at all. All thats left is gluing the 50th to the floaters.

Does the logo easily come off?

Was kind of a PITA for the OEM bmw floaters. Glued on; but heated enough and a trim tool, they come off. The 50th were just 3 clips. Thumb is bruised and the pick trim tool helped me pop it open and rotate and popped off.

Definitely post pics on the car for future anniversary owners to know it’s possible because $500+ is bs

Will do! Wanted to let the adhesive set up before I put them on. Will likely install on the car this weekend and post up! Wish I could post a video. Cause ya, it’s labor intensive, and requires patience, but their price especially after shipping and tax is $600+. Given, their shipping and products are top notch but seems a bit excessively priced.
