Trial and error. they really are a paint in the ass. In fact, in order to get mine to work with my stock pony center caps i had to use some cutters and trim down the plastic pegs on the top of the cap. The first one went in fine, but the other 3 i had to trim that to keep the caps from popping out when i tightened the spinners.

give yourself a couple hours to do this. it might go real smooth, or it might be a real pain.

Does anyone know if the ford racing centercaps will fit witht the spinners? Just curious. They are a pain the first time you install them but they look awesome. First saw em on TimstpeteFl's car and had to have em.

They will work with any center cap that fits in a stock rim.

I think they'd look great on charcole, anthracite, black rims.... I dunno about chrome though... Might be too much chrome plus they might be hard to see (I kinda want them for my chrome rims)
