hummer wheels and centre caps
« on: July 23, 2010, 09:13:36 am »
I put a set of Hummer 17" wheels on my C20 and now I am looking for centre caps for it.  I was thinking of factory centre caps from an 03+ 3/4 ton van or truck.  Does anyone know of any fitment issues with these since I cannot find them locally and I may have to have them shipped to me?

Are you looking for the Hummer Center caps or some from the Van/Truck?

I am actually looking for the van/truck ones preferably the painted ones not the chrome ones.

If you dont use the hummer caps the issue you will have with the chevy screw on ones is that you need a lug nut that has threads on the outside of it for the cap to screw its plastic nuts too. They are only available in 14mm x 1.5 that I know of. and the factory studs should be 9/16 on your truck. I have made these work by changing the studs over but I have not tried the truck/van style center caps on hummer wheels. I have tons of the truck/van caps if you need some though.

I found a seller on ebay that sells the 9/16 thread with the exterior thread for the plastic lug covers.  The caps that I was looking for are the ones that are painted (steel wheels) and usually found on the Vans in my area that are 2003 and newer.  How much would you charge for the van ones sent to 48060.
