Oooo, I like those center caps, can you get a close up of them? What Jeep did they come off of?

Make sure you get the right wheels, a lot of them are close but off just a little bit and will not work

I'd like to hear more about the close but not quite part. I have not heard anything about that on other forums. What part is not quite right? Bolt pattern? The diameter of the center section where the cap goes?

Bolt pattern
Some are using wheels that have a bolt pattern of 5 X 115 (5 X 4.52) instead of the KJs 5 X 114.3 ( 5 X 4.5)
Some will tell you its OK but in fact it will and does have to bend the studs a bit to actually tighten down which could lead to breakage of the studs

I like the look as well and would have a set on mine if I could find ones with the right pattern, I won't risk using ones without correct bolt pattern
