I got mine from the dealer and I don't believe they were expensive either.

I have the chrome 5 spoke wheels. Since I have a wheel off I took a look and the part number that is on the back of the center cap is different from what you gave. The p/n that is on mine is MR244232.

Romeen, that is odd. ASA recognizes that part number from Diamante's and 3000GT's only, not DSM's. Did your car come with those wheels from the factory?

 

[romeen]

Yes, these are the factory wheels that were on the car when I bought it new.

Unfortunately, I have no explanation for this. I would advise the original poster to remove one of the wheels that does have a center cap to get the correct part number to order.

As a side note, make sure you get a new set (or two) of the retaining clips that hold the center caps on the wheel. They rust like its their job and when they get brittle, they break.

yea i got them from a mitsubishi dealership..they were 30 bucks each so i guess it wasnt too bad..the retaining clips were 8 dollars each which was more then i wanted to spend even tho i had to have them..overall 76 bucks for two center caps and 2 clips..
