I changed out my center caps **Pics**

Originally had these on it





I thought they stuck out too far and cheapened the look of the wheels.
So I measured and bought these off Ebay


front

Rear



I like them much more this way.

Looks better, but you might what to try black centre caps (or paint those ones black).

Gimped. Quickly. No time to do any shading or fading.

i say leave the centercaps as is but i would put small Mt Fuji decals on them, theyre like 7 bucks and they would fit in there, also i suggest painting the calipers and rotor hubs black to make them look clean, i recently painted my chrome center caps black on my black rims, but thats cuz im going for the blacked out look

No, I bought the car about 2 months ago with the wheels already on it.

The fitment is fine. They are 35mm offsets, I plan to space them out to flush them. I would prefer a wheel with a larger lip but they work for now.

As for Ebay wheels, I have bought all my wheels from Ebay and never had any issues with them. A lot of folks on forums say steer away from Ebay wheels but I have had great luck with them.
I have bought over 6 sets off Ebay, for example:
