Heritage wheel center caps? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Okay guys, I picked up a set of heritage rims from a member here, he sent everything, but he couldn't find the lug nuts, I said that's okay. However I'm a bit confused on how the center caps stay on? It looks like the lug nuts should have threads on them as the plastic lug covers are threaded, is that correct?

If so, when I head to Tires Plus to get these wheels put and they use my current lug nuts, they won't be able to use the center caps, is that correct?

Just curious! Thanks guys!

This is correct.....you will need the STOCK LUG NUTS for the Heritage wheels, for they are spoecial and that is how the caps are held on.

Think a dealership would have any on hand? I'm leaving tomorrow and they do have a pretty good size chevy dealership there. If not, my lug nuts I do have, will work, right?

jsu9t give your dealer a call.....and I don't know for sure that the lugs from the 20's will fit.....but of nothing else a standard lig nut will work, you just might have to run wothout the center cap till you get the right ones.
