Issue with new magnum 500

[ga66mopar]

I bought a new magnum 500 15x8 to test fit on my roadrunner. It fit great on the rear but on the front the spindle appears to be to long to fit the center piece. Any one else seen this?

The cap is flush with the hub.

Have you put the cap on to confirm?

Have you put the cap on to confirm?

No not yet but I know it bolts from the inside but I will try that tomorrow. I have the original 14 in magnum with the center piece.

Try that first and get back to us.

Look at your old wheel,the part that attaches the center cap to the wheel looks like a cup and attaches to the cap with 1 screw at the bottom so the inside of the cap has plenty of room for the dust cap that is sticking out,I thought the same thing when I put my wheel on without the cap,once you take the cap off your old wheel you will see what I am talking about.

It fits, provided you have the correct caps.

It's just a sheetmetal "sleeve" type of fitment.

The bolts are way clear, and just clamp the center to the wheel.

You can't, however, use the MUCH cheaper, and shallower spring style ford centers.

I see what you are talking about. I guess I forgot what the back side of the cap looked like. Thanks

This wheel installation looks correct to me.

x2. looks kosher to me...

mine looked the same and regular caps and knockoffs fit no prob.
