They do, but if you change the center caps it does change the look of the wheel.

I put old school PMD (Pontiac Motor Division) centers on mine and get compliments all the time. Trying to mimic the old PMD Rallye rims.







I have yet to see someone put SS center on them. On mine it was an easy swap had to buy a longer bolt to hold them on that was it.

hot damn, i must have these on my firehawk. Been doing some looking around for best pricing on a set of the anthracites. Looks like Tirerack wants 187 per wheel (and i cant find the 10.5" rears on the site). And Jegs wants 181. Anyone know of any better pricing out there? I'm assuming the 44mm offset is the way to go for these on the rears since its the only 4.75 bolt pattern offered? see below.

Torq-Thrust M Series - Anthracite Finish
American Racing Center Cap
Size: 17'' x 10.5''
Bolt Pattern: 5 x 4.75''
Offset: 44mm

I am running the TTM's. 17 x 9 in front with 275's and 17 x 10.5 in back with 315's. Went through five sets of TT2's but couldn't find enough of them round and straight enough to complete a set. The TTM's are much better and easy to maintain. Good luck !

Very cool idea. Are these the same caps you used?
