Sounds pretty good, right? What was your offset? Also, do you have a larger photo of your complete car? Man I sure am demanding today

I have some HPevo's and i was dissapointed to see discoloration on the centercaps, seems like they are fading a bit, not enough clear was put on them maybe, as well as the paint is already chipping, only after 8k miles. However i get compliments all the time, does anyone know where i can get some plain silver centercaps? And would they look bad if i shot them black?

I had the same problem with the caps before they were stolen. I used the wrong rim cleaner and blamo they were starting to turn almost white.
TeamRx8 is sending me an OEM cap.
If it fits the HP's, I'm buying these caps:

TeamRx8 is the man! Looks like the OEM center caps fit HP Evos. Hell yeah I'm saved. Time to spend some money.
