Default 02 10 spoke wheels. Help!

Hey guys I have an 02 SS with 10 spoke wheels . Now on my wheels the center cap which covers the lug nuts, while the passenger side front wheel rattles like crazy! It's so annoying and loud, it make it sound like my brakes our bad lol. When I touch the center cap it rattles like it's loose, so I was wondering How can I repair this lil issue

The center cap shouldn't cover the lug nuts on 10 spokes; is the cap on correctly? If it is on right, I suggest wedging some tape or something between the edges of the cap and the wheels.

Yeah my bad lol idk why I thought it covered the lug nuts, but the center cap, it's crazy loose, but not loose enough to come off on it's own, just enough to rattle a ton. Ok rtv? Is this common ??

All the ones on ebay say "adventure" in the center of them. Emailed the guy and he said they were for cars that came with the "adventure" package. I was like WTF??

You don't remember the Adventure package?! Surely your Chevy dealer had a couple of them back in the day.
