Center Cap issue
Hey Guys,
im new to the forum, forgive me if Im breaking any rules for the site here. I checked all over the internet (and this site up and down) and havent seen this topic.
I just bought a set of axis shines in 19x8.5" for the front and 19.9.5" in the back.
they are beautiful. My issue is that the front center caps of the wheels will not fit if I mount the wheel b/c the axle sticks out and pops into it.
After talking to an Axis rep he told me he has the same set up with wheels/tires on his car but did not face this issue.
Anyone else have trouble with center caps of any specific rim? If so what did you do to remedy. Im trying to get a hold of 3mm spaces ITMT to see if this will resolve. I will update asap and post pics when all done (if It ever makes it to that stage )

its just sticking out enough to touch the caps. Im soooooo mad about it right now
thx for the response fellasyea 3mm would be good. mine are around 2-3mm. but only use one, anymore and you would have to get longer studs...
can i see pics? i wanted shines aint got dough like that though
