04-05 Center rims cap fits G35 rims
Will the 04-05 Center rims cap fits G35 rims? I have to replace the center caps but don't know with which ones..... If they fit and anyone is selling them please PM me ...
so do the 00-01 SE (16"option) caps, as well as some of the new Altima center caps.
check the Sticky at the TOP of the wheels/tires forum for more info on the G35 wheels and center caps.

You know when you take off the tire and there are those black caps on the rears? Well my dad took a hammer and this like big socket head and placed it over it and hit it so it dented the sides in. Then in the front he took a grinder and grinded off one thread and my '02 center caps fit fine.

Haha yea, my dad is a mechanic and an engineer, so I trust him and I have had no problems and I have had them on for 2 months. Oh and when i take my rims off in like 20 days, next time I am at my dads house, I will take pics of what he did.
for the front, no need to grind the hub. The center caps are pretty thick....just use a dremel and grind away 2mm or so of the plastic on the backside of them, in the middle where they hit the hub....they will fit.
I did the rears same way mentioned above.

All I did was dent in the dust caps on the rear. The center caps are two pieces molded together (chrome emblem on a matter circle). The caps are assembled by melting two posts from the chrome emblem to the circle. These points are 2 to 3mm high. Once they are shaved down with a dremel (I used a Rotozip - dremel on steriods). the caps fit fine. Took me less than 5 minutes.
BTW, I bought brand new caps off ebay for $25.

I have shaved the ones in the back as low as I can and still they don't fit flush.... so will se what else I can do... the front are on and love the chrome nissan logo .....
