Batesgar Posted October 10, 2022 Share #1 Posted October 10, 2022 Looking for center caps for my slotted alloy wheels that came with the car when purchased. I’ve seen a lot of talk and ones listed as 240/280z on line, but found these are typically too small. The center cap hole on mine are greater than 3” and seem unique to my 1973 240z.

Measurements, a picture of the wheels would help in finding what you're after.

Mark Maras Posted October 11, 2022 Share #5 Posted October 11, 2022 The hole in my US slotted alum wheels is 3". They were on my 71. The caps were attached using 4 sheet metal screws. The holes are 3 5/8" apart center to center. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/67899-alloy-wheel-center-caps/#findComment-646263 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here’s a few pics. The one on the right is metal and original. The one on the left is a plastic replacement from a vendor that required cutting to fit. The plastic ones have held up on the rear, but the front ones disintegrated at the bottom I assume from the hub grease. They measure 3 and 1/8 and the original metal ones are a bit shorter. Based on the plastic issue I may look to have the original metal ones replated.

I don’t want to drill holes in the mags to secure the cap. 1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/67899-alloy-wheel-center-caps/#findComment-646269 Share on other sites More sharing options...
