Help me find replacement center caps

Hi everyone,

I am having a really hard time finding replacement center caps for my Rays Kubira wheels. I've heard they don't make these wheels anymore and that this company may or may not be in business anymore - therefore I am having a really difficult time finding a replacement.

Here are the wheels:

I have been having a really difficult time in general with these center caps that fit into the wheel in conjunction with a piece that covers the bolt pattern. It seems as if on all of my wheels this is slightly popping out, which is how I lost the first one I would expect.

Can I find a replacement center cap that isn't Rays? How will I know it fits? Is there a generic guide to center cap replacements?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Have you contacted Vivid Racing or eBay?
Are you looking for just the center cap or the center lug cover?
If centers, check here: http://www.evasivemotorsports.com/Me...ory_Code=VR-CC

Ideally I'd be able to find both. However I am having a really hard time getting the center lug cover back on top of the other wheels (where I still have them, they are not fitting correctly). I have checked there. None of those look like they are the correct ones... Mine has a hexagon shape. I don't know if I can find another brand that will fit...

Best luck is to find a Rays Engineering distributor and directly ask them.
Have any part number(s) to help in your search?

Hi Erik,

Unfortunately not. I have the box and pictures of the center cap though.

That is the cap above, you can see it fits into the housing that covers the bolt pattern.
