Rial Solernos and center caps

Hi guys,

Quick question. I just bought the 16x7 Rial Salerno Silver for my 2009 328i Sport Package (with 205/55R-16 Dunlop SP Winter Sport 3D).

I've done some searches, and found "different" answers as to which BMW center caps fit properly....

I see that one option is to get the "sticky" roundels, and stick them over the rial emblem.

I've also read mixed "notes" on whether the E36 center caps sit properly in the slot (some say they're loose, some say they stick out a little and look funny from up close)...


So does anyone know for sure which (if any) "real" BMW center caps actually fit properly?

I see these on eBay for example:
http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...id=p2759.l1259



Again, any help/tip would be greatly appreciated.



PS. The reason I'm not buying the caps straight from tirerack is that (unfortunately), I was told by the tire-rack folks that they don't have the center caps for BMW any more due to BMW getting tough on the after-market folks....

those fit my salernos. MSRP on that page is wrong, tischer isnt charging more than MSRP, MSRP is ~14 per cap.
