Now I know about Machv site but 12 bucks ea I think there are better options. My question is was there a diffrence in size and color from 95-96 to the 17in 97-99 wheels? ebay has a bunch listed and like 15 bucks a set but I dont want to buy it to find out there wrong size or wrong color. I have a brand new set of 2gb rims that where remanufactured but they did not come with the caps.

Any help would be appreiated or if someone knows the exact size of a oem cap from that rim. I have gst wheels but caps are obviously chrome havent sized it up to see if they are same diamater though.
 
The center caps should all interchange. I currently have a gst cap in my front left. As for color.. I would presume anything but chrome should match. My evo caps look about the same as the gs*(sorry my _ key is broken) caps and they are about the same as the gst cap I have. But I've never honestly put them side by side to compare.

EDIT: Mine are all like this. Only more rusty.

I recommend you get center caps from the either the late 3g or 4g eclipse. They fit differently, and stick out a bit, but snap in and don't use any metal clips to rust. I like the 4g style that have the chrome three-diamond.
 
I'm having the same problem but with 98 Talon center caps. I just want to know if a 16" 1g center caps are bigger or smaller than a 17" 2g center cap.

I have a set of 1g caps but no 2g caps to compare. I wanna see if the 2g ones will fit my Evo 8 Enkeis I got. My 1g ones fit but another half inch and they'd be perfect.
 
Do you need the measurement of the outside of the cap? Or the i side part where it slides in? Why does color matter? Paint it

Sorry so long to reply a lots been going on but finally got around to installing the rims minus caps. Both would be nice. I got the gst cap (chrome) and checked it to my new rim and seems to be slight play #MR244232 is the number of my cap so they must have made a different size for the 97/99 gsx 17" wheel. I measured cap I have: outer diameter 2 3/16 (55.56MM) and logo side 2 1/8 (53.97MM)

Well the Chrome one I have seems to be a little play #MR244232 Does yours? Is it supposed to? , My local part store says #MR761468 is the one I need. You happen to have factory cap to be able to check the part # ? At this point ill spend the money for the correct cap. Thanks for your time.
