Currently Trying To Put H2 Wheels On My Truck. Rear Center Caps Do Not Fit Because Of The Hub. What Now?

I have the H2 wheels on my truck. I just put the stock centers back on the wheels. I like the look alot better and it confuses the hell out of alot of people. The H2 centers will not fit on the rear anyway. Hope this helps.

Actually there was someone that put wheel spacers on and made them fit. Sure you can find it if you search. Problem is then the wheel says hummer and it isn't.

If your stock wheels are aluminum the center caps will fit, just trim off the 4 tabs on the back. If your stock wheels are steel it takes a little more work. The link was when I did mine. I used painted caps but the chrome (Steel wheel) caps are the same size.

I didn't trim any tabs, and they fit okay. You can tell if you look closely that they weren't made for the wheels, but that is why I never was my truck. All that dirt in there just makes the whole thing look right. ):h

I was the one who put 2" wheel spacers on, and the stock Hummer caps fit just fine.
THAT look really confuses some people,
"When did Hummer start making a Pickup?" ;-)
I had the steel wheels and those center caps woouldn't fit without trimming. I wanted to even out the track width anyway...

Here are my H2's with the stock aluminum wheel caps. The steel wheel caps don't work.

One of my friends put 2" wheel spacers on the rear and installed the chrome h2 style caps on his chrome h2 wheels. Looks great, especially since his center caps are aftermarket and don't say hummer on them.

That would be better, at least then they aren't advertising for the wrong vehicle. Any pics of those?

Hoot, the 04 and up u can just pull out the black nub and it'll work fine.

I do this when switching between the summer H2 and winter stock rims.

I am running the H2 wheels and tires on my 03 D/A 2500HD 2 Wheel drive. I modified some center caps for a 3500 DRW and mated them to the H2 center caps. Granted I had to cut out the center of the H2 cap to fit the rear wheels.

I have tried searching, and I also read this thread, but I still cannot get my center caps to fit on my H2's. I trimmed the nubs off the back and they still will not fit. (They are off of the factory aluminum rims.) Am I missing something?

They should work...can you post a pic of the caps, just to make sure that they are the right ones?

Sorry no dig. camera. Does GM use the same center cap for both of the wheel designs?

Steel, aluminum and 1 Ton are all different.
Here is a pic of a cap from a steel wheel. This one had to be modified to work, like I posted before. Look at this pic and compare it to the pic that Dmax Tim posted. You should be able to see the differance. The cap that he is showing is much easier to fit than the one I used.
