what wheels are they? A lot of center caps are brand specific.

Have you checked your local tire shop? Was was getting some tires mounted and asked if they carried just plain ones and they said yes, they could get various sizes.

You can order them from http://subydude.com/osc/product_info...ccd91c84d9f950

The are around $40+shipping.

You also might be able to get a tire store to order some for you. I know discount tire got me a set of center caps for my rotas.

I never thought of going to the tire dealer. Gonna give that a go and let you guys know how it works out. Thanks for the suggestion and the link.
EDIT: Just looked on subydudes sight at the flush ones. Damn they dont make em for the torques.

That is weird. I know I took a center cap from a Torque at put it on my Slipstreams, and that lists it as fitting a Slipstream.

I also have one of the carbon fiber ones (extra one) and it fits on the Torque and Slipstream.

Well, I may have spoken too quickly. I went to another branch of the store and asked about them and they said no, they wouldn't be able to get anything that would fit my Weds--nothing that would look good anyway. Hopefully, you'll have better luck.

Maybe I will email subydude/oakos (bought em from oakos).

No luck at the tire store? Hm...

There's actually a way to remove the logo from the center caps, it's a post on Nasoic somewhere. I believe it involves boiling the caps in hot water till the adhesive melts allowing the sticker to come off.

I bought STI decals off of ebay and placed them right over top the rota logos. The decals were $20.00 and shipped from Japan.
