Avant Garde M310 - Bronze
Edit: Problem resolved! So, new 19” wheels are on and they look awesome. However, my front center caps will not snap in because the axle is sticking a little to far out. Has anyone ever trimmed, or see a really bad reason why trimming, about 1/4” off the end of the exposed axle would be bad? From what I can see, would still leave more than a 1/4” of axle threads before reaching the axle nut. https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...d0ab8f999.jpeghttps://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...e261f02b9.jpeg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...9b787e2eb.jpeg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...4251c9ed0.jpeg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...18bf2cec6.jpeg |
Not an answer to your question, but I love the color. A little lighter than what I did.

You need to upgrade the brakes. They do look small inside the wheels. :jumper:
|
What suspension? They look great! Are the 19s more harsh?
|
take the rear ones off too!!

Looks good. I am most certainly not a tech, however, it does seem like a small spacer would be better plan vs trimming the axle? Not sure if that would work or not. I guess it depends on how much fender clearance you have.

I don’t think a spacer would work for clearance. They fit just right now, I think they would rub it moved out. |

I would personally never trim anything on the vehicle to make way for wheels.

Update: I was curious to see where the axle was contacting the centercap so I wet the end with an red sharpie, pushed the centercap right in the middle and it snapped on. Tried other side and same thing happened. I guess the issue was that I was originally trying to install by pushing around the outside edges. Bottom line...user error! https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...e320a4669.jpeg |

you will probably have to measure the size that is on there and then find a sticker to match it and stick it on. you will want to keep the bronze to match, so a same size sticker to perfectly line up is probably only option.

maybe this http://www.sierramadrecollection.com...al-p18668.html That looks about right...currently unavailable. I swear like 6 mos ago when I was looking for new caps for my oem turbo wheels, I saw lots of sticker replacement options. Now that I want some...non available! |
