Will the OEM Ford center cap with the running horse fit in the Pony R rims?

If so, does the color match very well? Was looking at the silver wheels.

Thanks.....

According to Mavromont (the company that makes them) they won't fit on the new run of wheels. My old set that I bought 7 years ago takes the OEM caps just fine.

On "Pony R's" website they have pics of customers cars and the center caps have the running horse. I wonder how these guys are doing this......

^ My point exactly. 50resto says for sure that they will not fit the Pony R. So despite Wythors luck with putting OEM caps on, I wouldn't try it. It could be a possibility that Mavromont made the wheels differently 7 years ago.

I just realized that my original post was rather vague.

The OE caps fit the old wheels just fine. In fact, Mavromont didn't supply caps with them, but took mine and painted them with the wheels so that they would match properly. The new wheels are made by a different plant in China and do not accept anything except the caps supplied with them.
