After comparing the JCW wheels to the R84 V spoke wheels, I noticed that the "all important" JCW center cap is interchangeable with the R84 and R83. This is great news for those who want to keep the lighter 16" R84, yet have the option to switch out the center caps to the ones with JCW logo.

 

Where can we get that JCW wheel cap!!???

From any MINI dealership. With discount, the center cap is $11.60 each from Classic MINI. :smile:

 

Got a part number or a picture (preferably both...)?

 

Here's a picture of the JCW center cap on a white V-spoke wheel.

- 36 13 6 765 772 for JCW center cap @ $14.5 each retail

 

I assume they will fit on all MINI wheels or no? I was just wondering as I have the 16" R90 and would love to buy the center caps!

Unfortunately, not all the MINI wheels have center cap covering the lug nuts. R90 (both 16" and 17&quot, R87, R85, and R81 fall into this catagory. Due to the design of the wheels, the center cap will only fit R84 and R83 perfectly. It might also fit other ones like R88, R86, R82, but the cap will not look the same as the original.

 

Thanks Dave! That looks really good!

Now, if I could just find a spare $6K lying around so I could get the Works kit for my car...

 

I think I'm getting them for my V-spokes since I'm picking up my newly installed MCS JCW today! I've seen pics of the JCW wheels in white so I'm assuming you can also get the caps in white, right?

 

Called Classic MINI and a local dealer and they said that there currrently are no white JCW wheels and caps available. :???: . Guess I'll wait and see.

Yeah, the JCW wheels are only available in SILVER right now but you can always have them painted white.

The white JCW wheels on NAM and MINI2 you've seen were actually powder coated white at a body shop. The wheels are only available in silver. Like Mike said, you can always paint them white to match the white wheels.

 

There's a chance the small center caps for the new JCW wheels could fit the S-lites and R90s.

 

You don't need the entire hub cap, just the JCW plaque (item #5 in the diagram). This plaque is the same size as the MINI plaque on all the OEM wheels. You can put it on a 15" 7-holey!

 

Thanks cool info

 

$2.53 per Plaque with Adhesive Film.... $10.12 for a set of 4?.........

Has to be the least expensive item in the JCW catalog!

OMGosh I said "Least Expensive" and JCW in the same sentence.

I must have been speaking "AMERIKAN" as The Queen's English does not allow for those three words to be used in the same sentence.

 

... and they should be even cheaper if you order from Classic MINI with a NAM discount!

The diagram was from RealOEM.com (http://www.realoem.com/bmw/partgrp.d...21&hg=36&fg=15). The price listings are not up-to-date, but I've usually found them to be not too far off from the current MSRP.
