you shouldnt need to trim the lugs off. uv obviously not pushed the centre cap on far enough...

 Maybe but i dont think they should be that tight fella from vag i got em off reckoned they needed to be trimmed up as the proper centre caps are the disc type but i could be wrong if you force them on it would be a right pain getting them off. :wink:

they are a bit of a nightmare to get on, you have to give them a good whack and they normally go on

you kind of bend them in around and they click, its because they are designed for the 15" steels not yours, but they do fit I had some on mine. Just fiddly
