Nic Day Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 I am after 4 centre caps for a set of minilite style wheels. I have just picked up the wheels and I am in the process of getting them blasted and then powdercoated black. So I am after some old ones or tatty ones that I can have coated at the same time. They do not have to be the caterham ones either Cheers Nic on my quest to drive on 13inch wheels from 16inch ones!!!

caterhamnut Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 What size are your holes? There are several different cap sizes, as different makes of wheels use different sizes. Diameter? www.mycaterham.com here 91,000 miles -1st 1.6k Supersport, '95 Motor Show car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Day Posted May 11, 2006 Author Share Posted May 11, 2006 you are a star hows the rebuild going? I am going to sell the odd one I think and Chris from the 7 workshop has a wheel that we think might match. So I think in the end I will be after the 65mm ones Now getting closer to trying these 13 inc wheels!!!!

And if they fit your wheels that would be even better!!!! Winner of the Largest pair in a non SV 7 (Rumble 2003) here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nifty Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 Nic, Found them and they appear to be 65mm. They are brand new, since I bought them when I rebuilt my car but got the wrong size ... not knowing there was more than one size and of course CC never mentioned it to me *mad* They are Superlite ones but come with the Super Seven badges to adhere to them. Unfortunately they don't fit the wheels you have bought from me, they are too big again. Are you still interested 🤔 If you are then they're yours for a donation to NTL, what do you think 🤔 Keep off the straight and narrow 😬 Edited to point out that I cannot find the fourth one of my old set 🙆🏻 Edited by - Nifty on 4 Jun 2006 18:10:00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Day Posted June 5, 2006 Author Share Posted June 5, 2006 Yes please Nifty As the 6Js I will have on the front do have the bigger wholes!!! I will just have to find 2 of the smaller ones!!! I will be getting the cheque out to you tomorrow if thats alright. Winner of the Largest pair in a non SV 7 (Rumble 2003) here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
