Dano - thats a good idea, do you have any sort of idea what kind of prices they would charge?

Len - the white centre is just one of those centre cap things, so would have to get 4 new ones really, tis a shame because I like the white.

I do have a mate that works in an engineering shop! But whether he could do it is another matter. Not his skill but if they had the machines to do it!
Dunno! He's Billy's mate really, who is away atm. But I could ask.

To get something like that machined and threaded, would probably cost more than a new set of wheels!

I am trying to do that but with a plastic bbs centre cap and a piece of plastic!

I have now also found out that they are Rial wheels, so have been in contact with them but no luck, but as they are German wheels I have managed to find a set on german ebay!! Problem is they are for a merc so am trying to get him to sell me his centre caps!! (he only has three) :smiley:
