nice wheels, they are the standard 11 spoke I believe (normally sparkle silver) not sure really but I think both those caps will fit, the give measurements so whynot have a measure up and go for it.

ps dont forget the pics when they are fitted.

Neither! - you need SATIN BLACK ones! You could simply mask the MG badge bit and spray it satin black i guess though as the chance of getting the right ones is near zero.....

ah got yer :dunno:

fantastic price on the wheels, personally I would fit the caps and see what they look like, you never know you might like them as they are, of course masking and painting is an option if you can find the paint to do it.

good luck anyway and pics pics pics ;)

Or you could make your own custom caps.

Lever out the badge in the centre, grind the centre flat with a dremel, spray a suitable colour and buy some new correct sized stick on badges from ebay.

This is what I did and you don't have to stick to MG, you can have your own badges made.

I went for these badges. They look great in the sun.
