My wheels will be coming in about 8 weeks. The manufacturer isn’t sure if flat center caps will work.

Do flat center caps work, or do I need to get raised caps?

Does offset/width affect the ability to run flat caps? Is it wheel design specific?

The design of the face of the wheel matters (that includes the offset FWIW).

So which wheels are we talking about exactly?

Yeah IDK if those are going to work (no pun intended). The ‘stang has a big hemisphere dust cap over the hub bearing nut and it pokes out quite a bit

Check out the Apex SM-10, its a similar design and look at the center cap area.

That’s disappointing. The flat ones come in all black, the raised ones don’t. I want black, so I’m not sure what I’ll do.
