wee bit of clear bathroom type silicone around the lip where the centre cap sits, tighten up the screw, let it set. it'll stop it rattling or the cap falling off. when you want to remove them just prise them off, the silicone won't stick that hard and will be easy to remove.

some ive seen have taken a dremel to the metal on the inside of the centre cap to remove a mil or so to make them fit better.
