Default What if any wheel center caps ???
For those of you have steel wheels what do you do for center caps on the hubs to protect the hub bolts and end of axle ???? Does everyone use the Terafirma drive flanges or something else ???

What exactly are you trying to protect against? The dust cap is all you need.

Get HD drive flanges with the thread on cap. Center caps look like smashed *** on Rovers compared to drive flanges.
