Any Ideas About The Centers On Magnums?? Please Help
 
I have a set of 14X7 magnums and a few of the plastic push in style center caps are broken. One of the caps does not have the retaining clips, and the others are either missing a few teeth or the spring holding action of the caps have already sprung. Any ideas on how I can mount these to the wheels so they will not spin off the first time I drive the car?? I know the SuperGlue option is open, but any others??

Ok, I am going to throw something out there it might sound a little crazy but here it goes. Find a countersunk screw and glue it to the center of the capon the inside, use something like JB weld. Next cut apiece of metal that is the width of the hole, drill a hole in the center and attach the two together with a lockwasher and nut. This would keep you from losing them but be careful not to tighten too much or the JB might release.

It sounds like a rig job but it might work ;)
