I just started running running some soft 8s, and I HATE the chrome center caps. I'm going more for the black out look with just a hint of chrome. Yesterday I was reading about some stock snap over caps painted black. How do they hold up? How would they look on this truck? And does anyone want to dump theirs off? (I had Edge 16's).

My truck:

 

Great looking truck. I never liked the chrome center caps either. Just some black center caps like you said would look awesome on your truck

 

i used duplicolor spray on bedliner, its held up ok so far, and cheap to respray as needed


my set on the ranger I used nightshade

I'm going to use these when I have time to put my soft 8's on

 

I know its a cell phone pic and they're very dirty but here's mine painted

 

i painted mine black on my d-windows... if you wish they can be yours.

 

those would look awome nightshaded, it would be like black chrome!

 

will those stock center caps fit/snap onto a pro comp alloy?

 

2 of mine fell off i need 2 more of them!

 

They hold up great! I cleaned 'em up, masked the oval, sprayed on Duplicolor Adhesion Promotor, then on went the Rust Oleum Glass Black Enamel. Right after installing them to the truck, I slipped off the tire getting in the back of the truck, accidently kicked a cap with my steel toe. Cap is still immaculate!









Niteshade DOES NOT like to stick to chrome...believe me..I tried....

Yes.....They'll work on ANY rim...only as long as you use at least 3 stock lug nuts.

 

WHAT!?!?!?! They dont just fall off. lol. They are a PITA to remove.

 

thanks, so they snap onto the lug nuts? why not just use all 5 stockers?

 

I use all 5 stockers...but you have the option of running a locking lug nut too...or other aftermarket lugnuts....Just saying...you need a minimum of 3 stock lugs to run those caps.

 

i think someone broke them when i had my tires re balanced by using a special tool... i have no way to prove they did it though.

 

I ended up with the chrome caps anyway...and I have to say they don't look that bad. I have an edge, and couldn't bring myself to paying $60 for a set of stocker caps on ebay. $15 sounds much better to me.

 

what kind and where can i get them

 

They will not fit on all aftermarket rims. Some aluminum rims, like the M/T rims, the lug nuts are too far recessed in for them to work

 

Gorilla Center Caps....$4 a pop.

I wish I would have gotten these instead of the Cragars Centers which I'm never going to use.
