I just got the whole set of wheels, together with their center caps and red lug nuts. I have sold the lug nuts though to a friend of mine, and replaced them with extended lug nuts.

You said that the flat center caps are expensive. Just for my reference, how much do they worth?

I got flat center caps for $22 each, which doesn't seem that bad when you are spending $2800 on the wheels. That was awhile ago, though - the wheels have gone up in price about $500 since then, so maybe the center caps have too

One of the first sites I saw that sells them-- $36.67 each.

True indeed that amount of money is reasonable when the wheels are about $3k now, but still... I'm having a hard time justifying spending that much.


EDIT: I almost forgot... my Volks ce28n, 9/7.5 standard fitment.
