Centre wheel hub cabs

Hi

My front alloy wheels have no centre hub caps.

The centre piece on the car will not allow the caps to be pushed into place.

Is there any product I can use to stick the caps on to the alloy wheel?

Thanks

    Glue?

    Only kidding. A photo of your wheels may help. I'm a bit confused by the question to be honest. If the wheels originally came with little central covers you should be able to get replacements that fit as before. If not, why do you need or want them?

    Wont push into place because the clips are broken or just the wrong caps?

    Centre of the wheel only or also covering the wheelnuts type?

    If they also cover the wheelnuts you wont want to be sticking them on with anything.

    Caps r the correct size and are new.

    Alloys did not have caps when I bought the car and now I know why.

    The centre bit of the hub will not allow the caps to clip into place.

    There is something far wrong here.

    You must have overlooked something.

    Or bought the wrong centres for your model.

    We need a pic

    Or at least what make, year and model.

    Do not under any circumstances use glue of any kind.

    Upload one to somewhere like Photobucket and then use the icon above where you enter text for a post that looks like a mountain against a yellow background.

    It only takes about 2 minutes to create a Photobucket account.

    That won't work either.

    What make, model and year of car is it?
