Floating Center Caps - any good?

I like the idea and notice that there are numerous vendors, but do they work (float) and are they durable? How long do they continue to float - months, years, rain, snow?

I’ve had the official MINI ones for several years on my car and they still look and work good as new. And I occasionally get complements on how “cool” they are, which makes me smile.

I have the official MINI John Cooper Works version for four years with no issues at all. Would highly recommend if wondering.

Have a great weekend all -Rich

Recommend. Have MINI ones for almost two years and are doing great. Been through two Winters with grime from the roads. Holding up well. I am aware of the MINI, JCW, and Seaside editions white and blue "30" ones.
