Default ??? 70mm sounds big for a center cap, no?

70mm is roughly 2.75''. Just seems on the big side.

Default Sounds more realistic...

Call a shop that distributes BBS wheels. I'm sure they have caps in stock and/or wheels up for display and a tape measure handy.

Default Nope *edit*

It's style C shown below at least for the 5x112 bolt pattern. 5x100 I believe is different.

Default Is the front of the cap really 70mm?

It just seems hard to picture a centercap in my head being that big...

Default Nope.

Those only come out of BBS Japan. We're trying to locate them, but not having much luck.
