Okay gang, I need some help/advice here. I got two of my chrome H2 wheels yesterday (DAM! UPS!!!)...so I decided to go ahead and have them mounted up and trim the valance and such for proper fit.
Here is the problem, the center of the wheel measures 8 3/8 inches where the center cap should sit. However, the outside diamater of the Chevy center cap is 8 1/2 inches. I know I need to knock off the four "teets" off of the back of the center cap, but for the life of me I cannot get the cap even remotely close enough to start the plastic caps on the lugs (they don't even touch the tip of the lug nut). HELP..... What am I missing? I would really like to have the front end complete before UPS delivers my wheels on Monday. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!
