View source for Later Center Caps Don't Fit the Front

Original thread: [https://forums.mye28.com/viewtopic.php?t=53909 Center caps from later OE wheels don't fit up front!]

'''Problem:''' I just picked up a set of newer OE wheels.  The center caps went on the rear just fine, but don't fit on the front!

'''Cause:''' Your E28 is running the older-style spindle dust caps.  

'''Solution:''' Purchase the newer-style "concave" dust cap!

The part is the same between left and right.

They're extremely inexpensive, as they cost about $2-$5 ea depending on where you get them.  I'd give our endorsed vendors a shot first, though.

Simply pop your old ones out, and put these in.  Give a nice whack with a rubber mallet and you're set!
