They look similar. Your thinking of Rondells, they have 6 spokes and a center cap. Borbet's have 6 spokes but no center cap

I have a set of 16" ones which were on my S1. Took them off as they were too wide and the wrong offset!

These rims are Uber cool mate! Need to be 17's though imo, but if you only want a spare set, then what a spare set to have!
