Mounted up some new wheels(Avant Garde M368) in 19x9.5 on all four corners. Question is what did you guys do to get center caps on with the factory front bearing dust cover? Pics on the way as well.

What about a wheel spacer to push the wheel out a little, so the cover will fit?

Here is mine with street tires on.

Cars are for expressing your personality beside tranportation... a Boss is no different. I like Swies car, it looks pretty cool to me. I put 20s on my Boss. There have been a few Boss owners that think that is a sacrilege.... its not a race car. Put bags or 20s on a Boss 302S... now thats silly.

Since its not good to use spacers no matter what anyone tells us, I would replace the bearing cap with a billet version so it looks great and its functional. We have to remove the beauty cap before road racing anyway to improve cooling.

Not sure where we could get a custom bearing dust cover made. here are some snowmobile ones. http://www.kenssportspolarisparts.c...50a7f4d0538f17084c03573d/billet-bearing-cover
