Centre cap fitting

Featured Replies

I just got some centre caps for some wheels of mine, and I have a feeling the centre caps are a tad too large!

But just before I whip out teh saw and hammer, I thought maybe there may be a trick to this. So.. is there? Or are my caps 2 mm too large?

Sorry in advance for the amatuerish question. :stupid:

Yoy do realize Lachlan that you can't post a picture of the cap because then we'll know that your camera is working.

shhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!

If he doesn't, then he will need to change his name the,

The Faceless One!

Thought that may have been the cap, it is the one with the "Z " stylized on it, isn't it?

If it is then they where an extremly tight fight and needed a touch with a rubber mallet to seat them correctly.

Just out of interest where did you get them?

They're not Z ones, actually. I'll give you a clue though, they have three ducks on them :classic:

I'll give it another go... but it's about 1 or 2 mm off at every side. (yes, circles have sides shh!)

Actually, after I posted the last, I started thinking that you may have the wrong size.

I'm happy to take them off your hands at 1/2 price you paid for them.

Just doing you a favour as they don't fit and you haven't a zed to put them on!ROFL

Well if there not zed ones then what are they and what type of rims are you trying to mismatch them to!

They're only plastic, nothing a bit of sandpaper wont fix :cheeky:

Or maybe I should get the wheels bored out a bit. That would cost money, though... hrmm

I gave you a clue! Here's another: they come from Japan!

Just knock the tangs off and silicon them on.

It's only for the "K " isn't it!ROFL
