    I have the 7189's with the hubs that came with them and every time the wheels get taken off the hubs get scratched. I can do it carefully, but I had to have my tires balanced after some weight fell off and the guy was not so careful. I cant really blame the shop, these things scratch EASY. What are you guys doing? do they make a different hub that is a little smaller and wont rub so bad?

    Do you have any pictures? If the center caps are the same as the ones for the 7089s I may have a set for you. Brand new, still in the bubblewrap, for cost of shipping.

    It won't help you in the long run but at least you'd have a fresh set to start with. :)

    Not right now, my truck is getting my sliders welded on. Its just the crappy ass paint getting scratched off. I may hit you up on those, but ideally I'd like to find a more permanent fix.
    edit, i will most likley will hit you up on those, but once I get back from my trip to NC

    A lift, some wheels, some tires, some performance, some cosmetic and then audio.
    Mine are all dinged up from rotating and balancing them.
