Re: who used the center caps w/ there rotas (Echo7847)

at least paint the centercaps to match the wheels or black like MF8's.....seeing the hub behind the wheel looks butt unless you only use the wheels for racing

Re: who used the center caps w/ there rotas (Emerika)

I have mine off.. I painted them flat black, but still didn't like them on.. maybe I should try sanding them down, but I'm worried on how far I should sand them. I want em close to flat as possible..

Re: who used the center caps w/ there rotas (silverEH2)

mine didn't even some with them, rota needs to ditch that extra labor/materials and make there rims even more cost effective

Have 'em on there and love 'em... I don't so much care that they are NOT REAL! and don't have to hide the fact that I didn't spend an arm and a leg for wheels. I think they look good.

Re: who used the center caps w/ there rotas (firehouse)

I didn't like it with no caps and just bare metal.
I also didnt like the fake CF look. So I lightly sanded the caps and painted it flat black. Looks damn good IMO
