AMG Center Cap Fitment
Having trouble finding info on people that have used the AMG center caps. I was wondering if the 75mm will fit in place on the stock SRT wheel.

Mike, they kinda sorta fit.
Ok, here is the deal. There is too much play in they once you get them on. If you look at pictures on bay that show the back side, you will see that their are 4 tabs and a metal ring. To get them to fit tight, I took the metal rings off and threw those away. Then, I took a lighter and heated the plastic tabs and bent them outwards slightly with a pair of pliers. Making sure to start the bend at the base of the cap. Not much bending is required to get a snug fit. I have had mine for about 6 months now with no problems.

Not sure why these are different than any other style, as all mercedes wheels have the same diameter for the center caps. I guess just a manufacturing error.

They actually will move in and out about .5 to .75 inches. Without modification, they would be flopping around instead of spinning.
