    I've finally managed to get some 15" p slots :). Unfortunately I don't have the centre caps :(.

    I've looked up various forum threads and it appears that the 8p variety came with the metal centres.

    Does anyone know if later vw centre caps fit nicely? Mk3 golf ones or the g60 steel caps?

    Would this fit:

    or this:

    or this:

    Cheers

    Which type did you modify? Did you have to change the diameter? I will keep my eyes pealed on ebay for the alloy ones.

    I must stop buying wheels lol

    4 sets now!

    But I've always wanted 15" p slots :) I hope I can find suitable covers. I guess I could fabricate centre caps out of alloy otherwise.
