Yes - your picture told me it was Mercedes Benz and for many years the standard centre cap size has been 75mm.

Have you tried taking a wheel off and checking that there isn't a part of the old cap stuck in there.

The old cap comes out easily if you push from the back of the wheel.

I suggest you try fitting the new cap with the wheel off.

I have exactly the same caps on my M-Benz Sprinter and they just snap into place. They need a good push though with the cap exactly in place - don't try pushing on one side.

The new caps should look like this:

Did u see there is very little gap to push the caps in place?

Yes and it doesn't allow the clips of the caps to clip into place

Your pic shows a front wheel hub.

It's so close I don't recognise the wheel style.

Are these genuine M-Benz wheels?

Have you tried fitting a cap to a rear wheel where there is no wheel bearing cover and therefore more space?

I would be taking a wheel off to check this thoroughly.

I don't think they r the real merc alloys and that probably why the caps don't fit.

Yes there r caps on the back wheels.

Any ideas how to for the caps? Stick them on some way?

Took wheel off clipped in cap tighten wheel cap pop off.

Can I remove wheel bearing cover?
