Hi Guys,
Fitted a set of Speedlines on my sport today.
They fit perfect but I cant get the center caps on.
They foul up on the grease hub cap (the bit between the alloy from the car)
Do you have to use spacers? If so what size? It looks to be about 10-20mm gap. Theres a smaller gap on the rear wheels and a larger one the the front.
Have seen some 10mm spacers on e-bay for £57 for 2. I will obv need 4!
I can make some at work but just need to no if this is normal and what size to do them...does anyone have a second had set going cheap?
Help with me appreciated.
Cheers, Chris.

take the cap off in the centre
there only there to stop dirt getting in on the nut but if you have centre caps they protect them anyways

Yeah if you don't need them just batter them off with the wheels on, just be careful of the wheels!
If you want to keep them for if you get rid of the car, do it properly with the wheels off
