center cap help!!!

[tly02]

I changed my wheels on my 02 from steel to alloy, the center caps from the steel wheel didn't fit!,I got on ebay a new set of caps that were supposed to fit.

THEY DONT fit the lug nuts!!! if anyone of you guys run the same wheels please let me know which cap you used. thanks.

the diff is the lug nuts i think the alloy wheels have a large shank that the metal tangs on the hubcap fit too

I think Koyote is right... The lugnut is the answer to the mess... Alloy rim use a fairly large lugnut compared to the steel rims...

On my wheels, just like you have pictured, they are 24mm, Sorry no pix.

The center of the lugnut is hollow looking. If that makes any sence:2cents:.

hope this helps.

dodge and chevy's bolt pattern is 8x165.1 and stud size 9/16-RH. the new fords(98+) is 8x170 and 14x1.5 and i think the bigger fords(450sand 550s) us 8x200mm

they have different lug nuts at oreilly's, but they come in 4 packs @ ~$9
