I just got new rims and in the rear 17x10.5's the center caps are fitting loose ,has anyone had this problem?......like you can move the back and forth and spin them right around with one finger

My AFS Cobra center caps fitted loose to the point they were cracking. So I replaced them with Ford OEM Bullitts and no problems since.

The fake Cobra caps that came with my Deep dish replica FR500's fit perfect, but when I put the OEM pony centercaps from my Mach 1 wheels, they fit loose. Havent had any problems with them though. No cracks & all 4 are still there. You can spin them by hand though. No big deal to me. I hate those crappy lookin fake Cobra caps anyway.

Hmm, i haven't noticed that and my wheels came in last week. Later on i'll spring for some Pony caps and get rid of the coiled Snake ones.

I actually did this last weekend. I had the same issue with my stock center caps in my new black Bullitts. So, to fix it, I took the center cap and wrapped 2 layers of electrical tape around the prongs. The center caps now fit snugly and doesn't rattle.
