They are from a cougar (altho few ppl would know that) so that is kinda an issue to me as I do not own a cougar. If I decide to keep them off I am going to get nicer lugs tho. oh and before everyone else says so -I know it needs a drop -My paint looks like azz -That pinstripe is ghey and is coming off! Wheels with center caps up close Wheels with the center caps far away Wheels w/o the caps close Wheels w/o the caps far thanks for the opinions -Pete Every time I come online I wonder if the forums will be up

I would personally choose chrome nuts and minicap. - that little detail will compliment the cougar rims so well. Just a thought.

Right now if you take the caps off, it just looks like you lost them, because those rims are obviously made to have a center cap (there is a big notch to pry it off). And who cares that you aren't driving a cougar? How many people with non-SVT Contours putting SVT wheels and body kits on their cars? Plenty. So, go for it and get the Cougar body kit too!
