Posted December 19, 200321 yr comment_61229 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: Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/9374-centre-cap-fitting/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

December 19, 200321 yr comment_61233 Yoy do realize Lachlan that you can't post a picture of the cap because then we'll know that your camera is working. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/9374-centre-cap-fitting/#findComment-61233 Share on other sites More sharing options...

December 19, 200321 yr comment_61242 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?

December 19, 200321 yr Author comment_61243 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!)

December 19, 200321 yr comment_61244 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!

December 19, 200321 yr comment_61245 Well if there not zed ones then what are they and what type of rims are you trying to mismatch them to! Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/9374-centre-cap-fitting/#findComment-61245 Share on other sites More sharing options...
December 19, 200321 yr Author comment_61246 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... hrmmI gave you a clue! Here's another: they come from Japan!
