    What Honda Center caps fit Rota Slipstreams?

    I have a set of 16 inch Rota Slipstreams and I really hate the center caps they gave me. I was wondering if anyone knows what Honda center caps fit and what they would look like. I have looked around and have not seen a thread regarding this specific topic. Anyone who has information and or pictures please feel free to help me out.

      maybe the prelude caps fit. i stuck one in an accord wheel to see what it would look like. if you measure the center hole in the accord wheel and it's the same size as the one in your aftermarket wheels, it will fit.


      later.

        also, if you find a cap that is smaller than the hole, you can use rubber o-rings to hold them in. later.

                My Quest Update

                For the last few weeks I have been on a quest to find Honda center caps that will fit in my slipstreams. Although this thread has had many views, few people have yet to post their input.

                I have searched the web and although many people have had similar ideas none have found the proper Honda model number. Yesterday decided to take a trip to the " Honda stealership" (Honda Dealership). I looked at EVERY cap they had and no luck. Some were close and fit in the hole but even with modification they didn't work.

                I took a picture of the best one but it only looks good in pictures. In person the cap does not fit in the rim properly and still no luck.

                Any input, comments and or Model numbers will be greatly appreciated.

                  honda used a lot of different caps, but they were all kinda standard sizes... if that smaller sized one doesnt fit (from the pic) then i doubt youll find a stock one that does...

                  i hate the rota center caps too, thats why i dont have them on either...


                  i think this is probably your best option: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthre...pot+center+cap

                  they come in most sizes in 1/4" steps... so im sure you can find one that fits, even if it requires slightly bending the tabs in or out for a snug centered fit. then you could get some H decals cut up.

                  i tried using those caps in the centers of my stock alloys, but the front axle nuts stuck out too far and popped them out. i dont remember how much room the slipstreams give, so idk if youd run into this same problem.

                    I have actually tried the Knockout plugs but they didnt do it for me. In my eyes they look cheap. The center caps that are in my picture fit but they also dont clear the front axle nuts. The caps are too shallow. If i get a chance i might go crazy and make a mold for the caps, I have to extend them so they will clear the nuts. (If that makes any sense). If not i will continue the search for similar caps but deeper ones.

                      this might help!!! http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1168382&page=1

                      These are from a Honda S2000.
                      OEM Honda Part Number: 44732-S87-A00

                      $9.53 per centercap
                      it appears newer accord, odyssey, and Si caps all fit, too. they look a little different.

                        I think one of the locals is using one from a newer accorod on his slips. I forgot.

                          Thanks mike. I actually found that exact thread two days ago and went to Honda. To me it seems like no one knows the part number they used. I have the same Pn as the person whos pic you posted and mine does not fit. Im wondering if it does fit but not on Cb's due to the clearence issues with the axle nuts. I guess ill keep trying and maybe ill get lucky.

                            i found some that fit in the slipstream







                            i didnt mount the rim on my car to see if there will be clearance issues with the axle bolt but the cap fit into the rim.
