Default Where to find Centercaps for disconinued wheel

I purchased a set of Konig Cobra wheels because I mistaked them for an OEM wheel that honda offered from 1996-2001

The Honda Wheel:


The Konig Wheel:


It was an honest mistake.. I guess.

Anyways, I purchased the wheels without centercaps in hopes of buying the OEM centercaps from honda. I haven't actually purchased one because I don't believe they will fit the konig wheels. The design is similar, but i don't want to spend $35 on one center cap shipped to me just to find out that it doesn't fit. If these wheels were more popular I might, but I don't think I could get rid of the center cap if I bought it and it didn't fit.

Does anyone know where I could purchase a set of 4 centercaps for a disconinued wheel or does anyone happen to have these or know someone who does??? (the konigs...)

I'm desperate.

go to your honda dealer and order one, that way if it doesnt fit you can return it.

i dont think it will fit/look right.

I know.. I just wanted to see how bad it would look really.. but the honda dealer here says the wheels above are discontinued too.. HandAaccessories.com has them but shipping is like $15 for one.. lol

I think I'm just gonna bug this local guy to sell me his spare HX wheels.. I don't have the money for a set of wheels right now... Whats a good offer for a set of HX's with 80% tread kumho cheapo tires? He paid an insanely low price.. Previous owner installed giovanni chrome wheels on his hx.. lol

anyways..

Just find the black circular H badge that you can replace the Konig cap with.

nah.. the overall shape of the centercap is different. I contacted konig to see if they might have backstock or know anywhere i might find the caps. I haven't gotten a reply yet.

I think the caps that I originally saw on them were just flat honda center caps.. I just didn't pay attention because I had no interest in them at the time..

Bah.. Im an idiot.. the more i look at the pics, the dumber I feel.

I honestly don't know if they are 15x7, but I would assume they are 15x6.5 most konig 15s are aren't they?

I wanted them for winter wheels once i had enough to buy another set.. who knows. maybe I'll rock them like they are..

They fit 4 and 5 lug cars.. that is interesting..

New lead.. I didn't read the inside of the wheel until the previous owner imed me about the wheels. They are Rota Cobras. The same exact design as the Konig Cobras, but now I might have another way to find the center caps!!!
