Center caps at the rear wheels doesn't fit
« on: May 15, 2015, 04:10:16 pm »
Recently I bought aftermarket wheels but now I have a problem with fitting the center caps at the rear wheels. At the front there's enough space, but at the rear wheels not.

Front:


Rear:


Is there an easy solution?

17mm black plastic off the ebay Or a better option is to get studs and lugs

flat caps wont fit you need something like this

these may be domed enough

your other option if you have room is to fit a spacer that will move the flatface  in out of the way , but you may need longer bolts as well as spacers then
