Hey those wheels look great on there. I used to have a set of those wheels. I still have the center caps around if you are interested.

[351PoliceVic]

I might be. Did they clear the front dust caps

They cleared just fine for me. I was running 1.5" spacers. What size are you running?

[351PoliceVic]

I'm only one inch spacers. The caps didn't even try and fit

I do not understand what you re saying. Are you saying that the stock flat caps fit without hassle?

[351PoliceVic]

On the back they fit but the front the dust cap sticks out past the rim

Id say you are out of luck then. Must be why the recommended spacer size for those wheels are 1.5"

[351PoliceVic]

They don't rub at all 1 inch spacers work. I also had them on an 83 merc with no problems

[87gtVIC]

But your center caps don't fit the front as the dust caps are sticking out according to what you are saying.

Do you have the flat centercaps? and have you tried them? Even the flat style caps stick out a bit past the center of the wheel. Maybe you get lucky and everything is well and fits????

[351PoliceVic]

Ya I have them they don't fit

[87gtVIC]

okay then. Odds are mine wont fit either even though they protrude outwards...
