modular hub covers

thequeenscheese · Sep 9, 2014

So just ordered the mods what are you guys using for hub/stud covers?, the chap at tyres direct said most jap stuff like hilux and also frontera covers should fit and go under the nuts???

They have six nuts?

Do they just still fit or need some modding? As I'd rather keep them anyways

I cut the centres out of the original wheels and used em as mounts

Hoping to sell mine on with the tyres and I don't really have the equipment to do that either ipresume you had to weld the to the mods?

Not that complex. You can just cut the ring out. Deform it a bit and it holds on to the spigot really tightly. But you do have to sacrifice a set of rims

I scratched my head for ages cos I wanted those centres on. It was the easiest way I could come up with.

Not modular but standard 15" steels, I went down the "budget but functional" road !!!

One set of wheel nut markers and plastic end caps for tubing!!

Might not be evrybodies cup of tea but it works for me!!

What are the end caps?

thequeenscheese · Sep 9, 2014

I'll keep them in mind, wonder if some black stud covers could be incorporated to the original covers...

thequeenscheese · Sep 9, 2014

Or wonder I'd a grub screw into the side of the nuts through the cover would work tightening up to the nut ?

thequeenscheese · Sep 11, 2014

Thinking of getting a set of these or similar and drilling the ends of a couple on each wheel I can the tap and screw the original covers on..

Thoughts?

Not sure that will work now the mods are fitted as there is no lip like on the original wheels, just the gap between the hub but and the wheel

Something like these would be idea at a reasonable price and in the UK?

The mods we have don't have the lip on them like the ones Diesel Do had (I sussed this out with JC600 as he got Diesel Do's wheels and we met up to compare notes), needs a custom jobby...

Some pipe end caps as suggested with a LR sticker on would more than suffice I'd reckon, could even get them painted to match the wheels if you wanted. (If I keep my car, I'll probably do the same)

Don't they clip onto his steelies the same tho?, mine look tapered in the hub do you think these will still hold in?

I did spot these also
