I have an 89 300TRX that I recently had to replace the wheels on (that's a story in itself). I ended up with a set of douglas wheels which do not have center caps. Douglas said they do not make any center caps nor do they know anyone that does (wish I had known this before I purchased). Am I just out of luck or is there someone out there that has found/made a set of center caps for these wheels? They have a 3.5in by .380in opening. Thanks!!

Why do you need/want center caps?

I would like to protect/cover the exposed crown nut and codder pin. Also I think it would look better. Is is OK to just leave these things exposed?

I'd be interested in some center caps for my Douglas Wheels as well. I think it would provide some protection and "clean" the look up some. Leaving them exposed should be fine.

I know my DS does'nt have them from the factory. I think KILLER250R is right, I don't know of ANY sport quads that have caps from the factory.

The cure for your problem would probly be beadlocks and mud covers.

Can I just get bead locks and have them welded onto my rims? If so who makes them?
