I will never again install wheels on a car that aren't specifically designed to fit THAT car.
Aren't Breyton specific and only built for BMW? So wouldn't the hub be BMW specific and not require a centering hub? I do believe BMW had a center bore hub size change for some models and this may have been why not hub centric. Was this an older BMW with a hub of something like 57.1 versus their current size of 74.1 or something?
