    Haha!! Nice post! Only problem with the ones on the left is they sent the wrong size! They stick out like 3 inchs from the wheel!!! I hate that!!! If I decide to put those ones on I will have to cut the back shorter so they don't look like crap.

    Yeah and the ones on the right are the ones they sent me!!! I know they make the ones on the left in the right size because another guy on TW got the same exact rims I did and they sent him the right caps!!! I e-mailed the place I got them from and they said their guy they deal with at AR got laid off.:mad:

    Dude I think you had the right center caps originally because the tire shop said they needed to install the center caps onto the wheels because they sit inside of them, this is how they should look

    nope but I want some black caps. Mine are too long for my liking I think I get some plain one from wheelers or just go without them. Both of those caps would look good on your truck. nice rig!
