Posted October 21, 200717 yr comment_225599 After seeing what a set of Watanabes center caps went for on Ebay last night I started looking for alternatives. I think it was $131.00 or something close to that. Today, while wandering around in Princess Auto I spotted these plain jane stainless steel caps that I thought might fit. After a 30 second trim with my cutoff saw, they popped right on. A perfect fit. They might look a little cheesy now but I think with a set of stick on emblems they will be OK. And the price is right, 88 cents apiece. They have a slight taper, so they could be adapted to hub openings of + or - 2 3/4". If anyone would be interested in a set I'll be happy to pick them up.

October 21, 200717 yr comment_225610 I don't know, the bar code kind of sets them off from the regular run-of-the-mill center cap...... E Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/25956-cheap-center-caps/#findComment-225610 Share on other sites More sharing options...
October 21, 200717 yr comment_225611 Princess Auto strikes again - I bought two 6 X 9 speaker boxes there: wired, wrapped in felt, spring loaded color coded connectors, batten stuffed = $8 similar but not as nice at Future shop $33. I wish I knew befor I got mine at MS - plastic $35 + shipping. I wonder how they would look with the Z stickies on them Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/25956-cheap-center-caps/#findComment-225611 Share on other sites More sharing options...
October 21, 200717 yr comment_225622 Personally I kinda like the bar code stickers... gives a kind of Minnie Pearl effect. Bet the MSA Z stickers would fit nicely though.

October 28, 200717 yr comment_226479 that's a good and economical substitution! I just like to leave mine without a cap but your find is actually a great idea. And it's only 88 cents and stainless steel. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/25956-cheap-center-caps/#findComment-226479 Share on other sites More sharing options...
