OEM center caps?

Does anyone know where to purchase OEM center caps for an Evo 8, or the part number? I've searched the forum as well as the internet and have come up with nothing. Thanks.

My next question would be, how do you install them? One popped off today because it came out, I couldn't figure out for the life of me how to get it in and ended up breaking it in the process.

I believe there is a snap ring on the back side of the rim that holds it in place. I'll have to double check next time I have the wheel off.

Yeah, I noticed there's a clip where the center cap goes, but because the center cap is obviously bigger than the diameter of the hole, I could only get it in partially. It seems it would be easier to do with the wheel off, which I don't have the necessary equipment to do so. Hopefully I can get it done for cheap :/


Thanks for your help again.

Yep, there is a clip ring that holds the back of the cap in place. Wheels have to come off to replace it.
