	Just bought myself some new wheels. unfortunately the centre-caps are missing and ive no idea what make they are to be able to even think about trying to find some replacements can anyone give me any pointers? they came off a J import mx5, so I'm guessing they could be made by SSR? The construction of them both look very similar to the 2 sets of watanabe rs-8s that i have. i couldnt find any details on the rims, other than a sticker written in japanese, which i cant read! failing that i guess i will have to make my own instead.

	I've found that most are of a similar size, there are large and small. You'll only need to 'modify' with a file to get some to fit.

	If you just want to cover the center hole (not the wheel bolts) you can get universal center caps off ebay in various sizes for about 7 or 8 dink, and then stick whatever badge you want in the middle.

	think i will just keep my eyes peeled on ebay, or maybe make some myself. the centre bit is actually threaded, so i guess the centre caps would have originally been screwed on. I'm half tempted to give them an ats classic style paintjob too.
