Where can i get centrecaps for my slipstreams?

[Marc]

The wheels didnt ocme with centre caps so i have an ugly bolt thread showing. Where can i get centrecaps for them?

[shelly_star]

Not sure where you can get them from, maybe give Rota/rare rims a ring or something and see how much they are. Sold a set to Sparky a while back now as my friend didnt want his centrecaps. Might see if my cousin has some lying around as he doesnt use his either.

yeah try rota or also try and ask toby, he may be able to help.

I have some flat , unmarked brand new rota centrecaps for the slipstreams.

Check that the bolt for the hub doesnt stand further out than the cap would sit..

IE my rota caps fitted the wheels perfect, but the bolts for the hubs protruded from the wheel slightly, so i had to order some different caps that look like wheel nuts, so the axle bolt sits inside the cap if that makes sense

I payed £5 each cap.. if youre bolts dont protrude further than the cap would sit, you can have mine for a fiver for all 4.

Plus say about £2 for postage cost.

Also check the rarerims website, thats where i originally ordered my rotas and caps from.

Cant remember the website, just do a google for RareRims..

Keirz got his centre caps free when he bought the Grids. Maybe you should give the supplier a ring and ask them where your centrecaps are. Pretty certain they should have came with some.

[Glanza_Ragger]

Mine didnt bud, i did phone them and ask and they just said there seperate.I think it depends who you buy them from

[shelly_star]

they normally supply them free with the alloys from the main dealers, strange u didn't get any.

I am sure the axle bolt protrudes further than the alloy so it wouldn't be a flush fit, where will i get the caps to cover the axle bolt?

That's strange, I got some carbon effect centre caps with my Slipstreams when I got them :S Can't see why you're not getting any.

EDIT: These are what my caps look like, if you're interested.

All you need is a small spacer mate just pushes the wheels out a little bit further making the centrecaps fit over the bolt. Keirz done it on the n/a with no problems.

Yeah, if i remember correctly, it only needed to push out about 5mm for the front caps to fit

Do these caps fit over the axle bolt? If so where did u get them and how much u want for them?

[Bluebear]

I got them with the wheels mate, already fitted on them. I guess they do cover the bolt, ain't had them off to see.
