Re: Theft of alloy wheel center caps
I asked about the center caps at our (Canadian) parts dept: they were something obscene, maybe $65~70 each. I've thought several times about leaving them off, but it looks so funky, and probably knocks 1/10th mpg off.
Another thing I noticed, the clearance to rim is so close that grit must be collecting, especially through the winter if you don't swap them out for snows on steel rims. Net result is corrosion around the edges.
I've also seen them for sale on E-Bay. Gee, I wonder where some of those come from...
