I'm having a hell of a time trying to find these. I lost one of my center caps while driving due to not having the metal tensioning ring. Come to realize there are none on the other three either. The center caps are from Nismo LMGT2 wheels. When expanded they measure 3" in diameter while the gap is 1.5". When put into the back of the cap they measure 2.75" diamter, and .25" gap. Does anyone know where I can find replacements?

Im not sure, but you could just go to your hardware store and get some snap rings, and file down the 2 points where they usualy have holes to put them in, (jesus rings)

Thanks. I've thought about that C-clip option, but all of the hardware stores I've visited don't have them this large.

try going to discount tire or a place that sells wheels. maybe they have some extra center caps lying around and they met let you take the rings from them
