Zippy,

Did you mean real centerlocks, like on 996 Cup Cars??

They "fake" ones do look nice to (no offence).

These are made fro the street so they have both lugnuts and centerlock. I agree that it does spoil the look if you are using the centerlock system.

With the BBS racing wheels, the primary use is for center locks. You can see these wheels on race cars on TV. Getting the holes drilled for your bolt pattern is an option. Unfortunately, if going with the bolt pattern, BBS do not offer a BBS center cap option. The FVD dumby center locks are the only option to fill the hole. At least this is how I understand it to be.
