wow thats a great point... looks like im going to be taking that back to get fixed sometime. damn. thanks for the comments though, i wouldnt have thought of that until i needed four wheel drive. im actually running 225s with 14x allied wheels. the wheels were really cheap, about $31 each, so the total was $591, but like you said its going to cost more now that i have to get those center caps fixed :oops: :roll:

Sure no prob. w/ the center caps you should just take it back to the place that did the tires and point out their mistake, they should just replace the center caps and give you the right ones no charge, if not then that tire shop is totally whacked. Yeah you still have the 14's thats why your able to fit the 225's in there. Oh yeah do they rub any? my 215's rubed a little when i turned the weel to full lock, but that has all changed since i put the body lift on.

Do what John Schoolcraft did to his hubs on his 4wheeler. . .Take the wheel off and paint them with chrome spray paint. It'll look alot better from a distance and still probably better than rusty black up close.

i dont think they are worth anything but i know theres still one on my spare tire carrier! :lol: 8)
As far as hubs go though, whith my truck i painted the motor Chevy orange when i rebuilt it, since then i have painted all my skid plates, my rear drums and my hubs that color, it looks awsome on a black truck. You might whant to consider finding a cool color that compliments the red and paint that stuff too.
