Mine dont insert into anything. The alan screw just holds them in place. They are 18 x 9 with 5 inch of back spacing. I will try and get a pic tomorrow.

But to your question OP, the center caps mount with supplied screws with allen heads. The gap is minuscule at worst, maybe 1/8".
Haha jeez Tuna settle down. I guess Il keep my comment I had in mind to myself. Ha. I think they look way better without that damn center cap

damn thats a big 4 runner. did he realize his rear driver side tire was on backwards?

also to the OP people cut the plastic studs down all the time on rockstars to make them sit in more, you have to cut the screw too as far as i know.

My hubs have that custom oxidized coating, looks rather lame againt the flat black rims. I def don't like the star, but I live with it. I'm painting it black soon though.

I guess I get tired of the people that **** on Rockstars just because x number of people have them. Why not **** on the tires people have, gotts mod, edge evo, tinted windows, etc because everyone has that stuff too. Oh well, rant rant.

I've physically never seen another truck in Mass with them. I also live on an island so I guess that helps. I only got mine in November. I'd buy them again if I had it all to do over again.

I hAve 20x10 black rockstars. I cut 1inch off the studs on back of shield and cut 1 inch off the screws.
Also, painted the stars black. They look awesome. I get so many compliments on the wheels.
