Those caps are mounted on with plastic nuts that thread on to the lugnuts. Those lugnuts are metric though. They won't fit on these trucks.

Check Ebay for the conversion lug nuts. I bought some in the past from the seller "lug nut king". They have an Ebay store you can get them from.

I'd love to see them once you get the conversion lug nuts and trim rings. I just droped off a set of rallies at media blasting today and can't wait to get them back.
