Just got my 17" rims and tires: Question??
Just got my 17" rims and tires: Question??
I just got my rims and went to put them on this morning, and realized I need some tuner lugs(silly me). When I seat the rims on my maxima, the dust cap pushes the center cap off. IS there any issue with removing the dust cap, and just having the center cap for my rim? I assume the dust cap just screws off, is that correct?
Cheers,
Matthew

nice looking rims, I have ADR's also and my center cap wouln't fit either. I had to take thecenter sticker off and put spacer under it to accomodate the axle. What's up with their rims not fitting I was so p***ed off. I have a center cap not like yours but I still wasn't happy. I also had to buy tuner lugs. Oh well live and learn.
I was able to get the center caps on
Thanks,
I got the rims and center caps on and am very happy with the rims. For the rears I was able to bash in hte dust caps enough to fit the center caps on. I started out by puting the handle of a screwdriver against the dust cap and hammering the other end until it touched the end of the axel. Then I took it off and nicely hammered it to that depth. It worked well. On the fronts the axel stuck out even further so I took a soldering iron to the back of the center cap and melted enough of it away that it fit on. The center caps are plastic. All in all it worked out well. I got the rims and tires on Ebay and got a great deal so I am not to complain.
Here are some pics in case you are interested in seeing them on the car.
