Re: Who makes center caps for 6 lugs ??

I don;t think bullet push through caps will work in the rear... There is 0 clearance between the axle hub and the wheel... I kinda dig the civic...

Re: Who makes center caps for 6 lugs ??

Here we go, here is the cap I ordered from MoonEyes. The base is slightly smaller (about 3 3/8" across) then the center holes on the stock rims so that's not a problem. They stand about 4" tall and look pretty cool. On the inside there is a stem with a hole that could be easily threaded with a tap. I haven't really studied how I could mount them but at a quick glance I'm thinking a stud could be welded to the rear axle and then screw on the cap. On the front 3 or 4 set screws could be used to secure it to the front rotor. The trick would be getting them centered so they don't wobble. They are also kinda heavy so they would need to be attached in a way that they don't go flying off when hitting bumps.

click pics for larger image.

My friend Dan has bullet centers and lugs on his truck. He is running 15x8's from Stockton Wheel.

Welcome to the board Andy!

I can´t help you with your problem either but I hope you find alot of help here.

I didn´t see you at the last Rockets Meet but I saw your truck sitting there.
Maybe we will see each other this year at the rockets.

Viel Spaß hier im Forum!

Re: Who makes center caps for 6 lugs ??

I just did a thread on this not to long ago.. A lot of you chimed in.. I did the bullet cap on my 5 on 5 lug.. I looked at mooneyes, hub cap mikes and so on.. All too expensive. I got mine from Lug Nut King on Ebay and they were under $30 shipped. Check out my thread.. They do make them for 6 lugs wheels.

(except diggin' the civic. I hate it)
Has anyone actually done this on 6 lug? I'm 99% sure you have to have the rear and front both machined to even fit a piece of paper in between the wheel and the hub.
