Where’s the center caps? They look unfinished without them.
They’re declads, as far as I know they don’t make center caps for them. Would need to get the measurements and see if center caps off another wheel will fit

The diameter of the cap isn't the problem, it's mounting it. The cap snaps into the hole in the chrome cladding. Most just silicone caps in place, but I wanted mine to snap in like factory.

Here's a general synopsis of what I did, starting on post #254: https://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/threads/growing-up-doesnt-have-to-suck.93510/page-26

They're just rings made from PVC pipe, one glued inside the other, then epoxied into the wheels.

That is pretty clever, it came out good.
