solution for wheels w/o centercaps?

[Sportsmind4me]

After rocking stock for 2yrs now, the 1st mod on the to do list is wheels and bilsteins/stock shocks/lower perch. Most of my choices have centercaps as an option, but a couple that I'm considering do not. In particular, I'm considering the Work CR's from SOS. I don't see that any centercaps are offered and wonder if there are any solutions that would not leave that area exposed (pictures look kinda ugly with exposed/rusty metal). Any suggestions?

get some acura mdx center caps and stick them in the rusty hub ends...:biggrin:

It actually looks very good.

Paint the hubs.

The new Work Emotion CR Ultimate (on the right in the picture) has optional Center Caps.
The CR Ultimate offers WRT technology, so it's lighter and stronger than the standard CR Kai (on the left).

The other option is to use this guy's blueprints and make your own.

Thanks for all of the great suggestions guys! Hapa88, do you happen to know who is selling the CR Ultimates? Angus, what kind of paint would you use/method of application? I like the MDX centercap option as well and I could paint them grey to match with the emblem in red, but I wonder if they will fit...

Contact one of these dealers. Any of them should be able to help you find them.

For size recommendations, I would get in the Emotion CR Ultimate (Kiwami):

Front:
17x8 +47 (safe fitment)
17x8 +35 (aggressive flush fitment - possible minor rubbing)
MSRP is $450 to $620 per wheel depending on finish

Rear
18x9.5 +30 (flush fitment)
18x9.5 +38 (safe fitment)
MSRP is $500 to $670 per wheel depending on finish

Thanks for the link and fitment suggestions Hapa88, I think I'll be going the "safe" route. Too bad they aren't offered in the matte gunmetal like the regular CR's. I guess now the search begins for powdercoaters in my vicinity.:smile:

With many Work Wheels you can order them in any color that Work offers.

You should inquire about it through one of the dealers... though it may take a lot longer to get them.
