Shaun1982 Posted October 10, 2009 Author Posted October 10, 2009 yup same wheels just wider rears chief,like i say the fronts went straight on. I have a feeling that the o/s rear might go on as it would partly go on with the metal ring in,just not enough to be in properly & stop it launching down the road when i moved Quote
Shaun1982 Posted October 10, 2009 Author Posted October 10, 2009 I just tried the cap with the 2 snapped pegs on the o/s wheel, it now has 3 snapped pegs Quote
Shaun1982 Posted October 12, 2009 Author Posted October 12, 2009 Nope nothing dude,dont want to break any pegs off.lol. Quote
Shaun1982 Posted October 19, 2009 Author Posted October 19, 2009 Buuummmppp. Anyone got a solution? Its quite annoying having just 2 sodding centre caps on the car now Quote
CARBON FORZA Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 Shaun, It's Magnus here - Bob's in hospital at the moment but I'll try to help you as much as I can. Can you possibly send me a picture of that cap inside (with all the pegs showing) - what is the diameter of the cap and the wheel? Quote
Chris`I Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 Buuummmppp. Anyone got a solution? Its quite annoying having just 2 sodding centre caps on the car now They never fit right mate, if they are the same as my GTRs. There isnt enough clearance between the wheel and the hub for the cap retaining clips to fit in. You can wedge them in if you're lucky (mine were ok first time) but you have to fit the centre caps to the wheels before putting the wheels on the car. Sucks I know, I run mine without caps now, just hammerited the hub centres black. Quote
Shaun1982 Posted October 23, 2009 Author Posted October 23, 2009 Aaahh good man.ill have to whip one off & try it that way then,one of the caps will need to be stuck on somehow i think as its only got 3 pegs left now The fronts go on fine so why couldnt the rears Quote
Shaun1982 Posted October 31, 2009 Author Posted October 31, 2009 Final update now i think. Had new tyres fitted at work today so i tried the caps as the above post suggest & they just pop off when you put the wheel on Now im left with two sodding caps on the front & two totally useless ones Quote
CARBON FORZA Posted November 2, 2009 Posted November 2, 2009 I think that's probably why Bob didn't fit them... I spoke to few friends and they have the same problem??? I don't get it... get rid of the plastic pegs and replace them with 'springy' metal ones? simple and quick or just glue the buggers... Quote

It worked with mine the first time around, but never since! I have just hammerited the bits you can see of the hub black and it looks ok for me Quote
Shaun1982 Posted November 2, 2009 Author Posted November 2, 2009 Yeah i guess ill have to bond them on after ive had my wheels refurbed after xmas Quote
