Center caps at the rear wheels doesn't fit

(1/1)

TheDGM:
Recently I bought aftermarket wheels but now I have a problem with fitting the center caps at the rear wheels. At the front there's enough space, but at the rear wheels not.

Front:


Rear:


Is there an easy solution?

4ndy:
17mm black plastic off the ebay Or a better option is to get studs and lugs

TheDGM:
Sorry i mean center caps!

TheDGM:
Anyone?

your other option if you have room is to fit a spacer that will move the flatface  in out of the way , but you may need longer bolts as well as spacers then
