      I don't have a spare set of caps, but I figure I'll chime in with a comment that might be helpful. I have a set of 16" 5x120 weds bavarias, and the center caps are completely different between the front (7") and rear (8"), even though the faces look the same. One pair is plastic and clips in, the other is metal and presses in. They have different diameters as well so they can't be interchanged between faces. Just be sure to measure your faces to make sure any caps you find are compatible!

              those look similar to my weds, but the center area is different. Mine have a raised cylindrical flange. I was able to insert regular plastic E36M center caps in them, but they don't really stay.

                  Thats interesting. I may try that. The 3 holes on the center ring are threaded. So it makes me wonder. And the small ledge stepping down to the center.

                      Look for some one that does 3D printing and have some made.

                          will need to be high-temp material. PLA melts at like 120 degrees and these are awfully near the brakes.

                              Is there groove of any type on the bore, where the prongs would snap into?
                              Looks like these had a plate with screws.

                              SSR EC-C fins maybe? They do not look like Hayashi Techno R. Not Enkei 94 either

                                  No groove at all. Perhaps they are SSR EC-C fins
