Can someone identify these wheels. I've just bought them for my MK1 Caddy. I have been told they are from a BMW E21. They are 15" 7J 4x100. I want some centre caps for them if anyone has some spares. Pictures  This is all I can find written on them other than "Made in England"  Have a picture of them on the Caddy for your troubles  |

Look like some sort of Hartge looky-likey intended for BMWs, I have some memory of one of the more common replicas being called Hagars?  |

They're usually referred to as mims, not sure who actually made them though.
If you search bmw mim alloys you should come up with something.

There are a few variations, as mentioned MIM did one of the most common (1900 i think) i had a set of Aluline or similar and id guess being english they might be smiths?? As for centrecaps you can het universal ones one ebay for about 8 quid which are black textured plastic so look fine as is but could be painted easy enough.

I suspected they were MIM's. The writing pictured is all thats on the. No width sizes or anything. I have seen the centre caps on eBay. I'll have to take an accurate measurement of the centre hole and get some on order.

I've had a couple of sets, the et25 set didn't clear the calipers on my e30 but the et13 set did. Centre caps from those generic "Smiths" 5 spoke alloys fit.
