Took all the silver paint off of my center caps and used some nice stainless button head cap screws. Looks alot better than stock. Got them at Ace Hardware.

The head on the screw takes a 1/2" socket.
The cap is 3/8"ths thick so you get about 1/4" to 5/16ths of the thread going into the rim. ![]()

So it appears to be 15/16" long...how large is the diameter of the body of the screw? 5/16"?? Or some other diameter?
