Have anyone put any Pontiac center caps to 16-18" Enkei RPF1 wheels?

Does 2 5/16" Solstice or 2 5/8" Montana cap fit?

I just bought a set of sticky backed plastic center cap inserts off ebay, removed the Enkei centers from the caps, and put those on. They've held up great for years and look awesome.

I'm not sure what your wheels look like. If the center hub is big enough you could do like I did with mine. I took off the plastic cap my wheels came with and machined a hole in the center cap. My cap is plastic so I made a little wooden circle to go inside while I machined the hole in the center. It's just to be sure the jaws didn't crush the plastic cap or let it loose while I was cutting the hole in the center. The hole I made is the same size as the ones in my Fiero GT wheels. I took the Fiero GT cap and snapped it into the aftermarket cap. I put a little silicon on the back side just to be sure they stayed together. I like the idea of a stockish looking wheel. I like using a Fiero only center cap. Hope this gioves you another oprtion.

Thank you!

Problem solved, it is a bit difficult to find Pontiac caps in Finland anyway, so I did a little search and find out that Honda Civic caps is what many people have used and those I found from the first shop I asked. I found another finnish language thread where they had covered Honda caps with aluminium tape instead on painting them, so I decide to do same and add Fierostore stickers which I bought just in case last year when ordered ball joints and other stuff.
