4/18/24 I just had a BIG run on these caps this week and OUT of STOCK for 8 to 10 weeks.....
This item ships out on Friday (except for holidays orsickness) when my part timer comes in to handle the week’s paid ordersshipments.
Made in the USA / Sand cast alum / Polished Wolfsburg Alloy wheel center caps: 4 lug Alum rims
for4 lugOEM (VW / Porsche) and AMERICAN made American Eagle rims like: Porsche& Imitation2.0 literMahle 914, Empi8 spoke (not recent made in China rims), Riveria, Talladega (Rabbit &Scirocco plus)and some BBS rims that will also take the OEM 4 lug Porsche center caps.
Part number: WBC-2 Old school, era correct sand cast alum caps...
Price per set of 4x with set screws and allen wrench
alum parts, machined for set screws and then sent out for highly polished finish.
These fit mostly Type 1 VW\'s like Bug\'s, Ghia\'s and Type 3\'s and some Buses with wheel adapters.
Rim / Wheel center opening that these caps will fit (the 3x set screws can be run out for larger rim holes): 60 mm or 2 3/8\" Inside to 73 MM or 2 7/8\"(may need longer than stock included 8x32x1/4\" set screws so ask for the long sets in the message section)
From the center rim outer edge to inside the cap distance (covers up extended axle end and dust caps): 33 mm or 1 5/16\"
If you have the OEM mushroom (side view) dust caps on theearly VW\'s, or the later dust caps with 2 bumps on the sides, you will need to change over to the smooth side Brazilian dust caps.
There\'s 3x set screws per each cap for attachment to the wide range of wheels. A little trick is to use the included allen wrench from the inside thru the hole and then slip allen set screw onto wrench and screw it back into the threaded hole.
You place them on the rim and use the short end of the allen wrench to tighten the cap down with the set screws. Then you install the wheel (with the caps already on the rims) onto the car drums / brake discs.
Use blue Loctite on the set screws to prevent backing out. Insert the WBC cap into the uninstalled rim / wheel, equally tighten the set screws to the rim hole.
If you live in a bad area, you can remove the WBC cap and drill little divots that the set screws hit to get them set deeper into the rim to help from people prying them off. If you every use a tire shop later on, make sure the tire shop has that allen wrench, hand tap the center caps to test to see if they are lose before you leave their tire shop so if they just slip them on, you\'ll find it before you lose a cap!
You can paint the logo yourself.....they come highly polished only! Rare times small sand pits as the olde school casting process.
