Got some speedlines the other day, alessios 2's. and it seems like the dust caps on my hubs are blocking the centre caps. Is that a normal issue or am I missing something? Thanks

Yeah either flatten them a bit or take them off if you really want.

My last set had the middle of the centre cap machined slightly so they fit.

Ah brilliant thanks. Looks like my fronts are way to big, may be some jobs done under there at some point.

Nope. You hold the centre cap in place and il give it a whack. What could possibly go wrong

I had to cut the end of the cv for the fronts to go on mine

If you've had aftermarket CV joints fitted you'll need to either cut the shaft as above or drill a big hole in the middle of the centre cap and put a sticker over it. My caps have wee holes for the back stub axle and bigger holes fir the front. Whenever it comes back from the garage and the wheels have been off I have to change the centre caps round to the right wheels, otherwise they are all wonky! Take the hub dust caps off though otherwise the centre caps will never fit on.
