Thanks I was curious what the center caps looked like. They don't look bad at all. What size tires are you running?

Looks like they have a few different versions of the 6x5.5" bolt pattern:
2856 656 20 x 8.5 (5.4" bs) +19mm 6-5.5" for chevy, nissan
2856 655 20 x 8.5 (5.4" bs) +19mm 6-5.5" for toyota (big bore w/ push-thru cap)
2856 658 20 x 8.5 (5.4" bs) +19mm 6-5.5" for toyota (small bore w/ pop-in cap)

2297 656 22 x 9 (5.5" bs) +12mm 6-5.5" for chevy, nissan
2297 655 22 x 9 (5.5" bs) +12mm 6-5.5" for toyota (big bore w/ push-thru cap)
2297 658 22 x 9 (5.5" bs) +12mm 6-5.5" for toyota (small bore w/ pop-in cap)

2418 656 24 x 10 (6.0" bs) +12mm 6-5.5" for chevy, nissan
2418 655 24 x 10 (6.0" bs) +12mm 6-5.5" for toyota (big bore w/ push-thru cap)
2418 658 24 x 10 (6.0" bs) +12mm 6-5.5" for toyota (small bore w/ pop-in cap)

I wonder what the difference in the big bore and small bore wheels are?
Also,... which fits our trucks better?

1stchevy · 03-23-2011, 12:11 PM

That's what I'm wondering also lolife. I'm not crazy about a huge center cap that sticks out a lot.

Here's mine, 22"

1stchevy · 03-24-2011, 01:25 PM

What kind of center caps do they come with, the ones that push in from the back or the ones that pop in from the front?

eightbanger · 03-24-2011, 01:27 PM

I'm a fan of these as well....

lolife99,

I just got off of the phone with Centerline because I had the same question about the difference about the small VS big bore wheels. The guy told me the newer trucks with the 6-5.5" bolt pattern have a bore of just a little over 3 inches (3"). The later model wheels, large bore, with the 6-5.5" bolt pattern have a bore of 3 and a half inches (3.5"). I told him I have a 1968 chevy c10 and asked if the large bore would fit without modifications and he said they would fit guaranteed!!

I hope that helps.

jparks do tell about your wheel mod.... buddy

7T2 · 04-30-2011, 08:16 AM

Jparks · 05-02-2011, 10:07 AM

Jmedero, I bought a set of 55 caps along with the retaining clips for them. I drilled and tapped the centerlines before paint. Both centers of the smoothies and the caps were then painted to match my truck. If you need some more info or specifics just pm me.

Devillusion · 06-08-2011, 12:10 AM

I would be interested in seeing some pics close up of what you did. Thinking of doing this to my crew cab project, but keeping it 8 lug. Want to just powder them white to match the truck.

**70cst** · 06-08-2011, 12:43 AM

Ok....I have mixed feelings. It must be due to my old age

Jparks · 06-08-2011, 11:09 AM

devillusion, are you asking me or someone else?
