Flat surface on the face is about 2.25". I will PM tracking numbers after I ship tomorrow. Caps are packaged and ready to go.

I doubt you would need to put a clear coat on unless you want a real glossy black.

Put mine on when I got home. Teaser:

Love it!

No, those are flat black (actually more of a satin black)

Question... is this mainly for looks? I heard you dont need a hub centric ring for this hub since the bolts come out of it unlike BMWs

No you always need hub rings when the bore doesnt match....I mean its not manditory but you will have some play and nvh....say yes to the hub ring.


Oh ok if those are flat black no wonder they match so well.

I think im going to paint mine wr blue then buy a set of those subie center cap stickers and center it leaving a faint ring of wr blue ....ill post pics ...might be a while tho still waiting for my gun tc's.

Thanks for the tracking and shipping info just got it.

Received mine as well. Casual glance says they look pretty good. Popping them on tonight/tomorrow.

EDIT: As per usual, I've run into problems.

Thanks @kask2_6.0 and @JoeBoxer!

My powder coat is thick enough to interfere with seating the rings. Need to sand down the bore a bit I think.

I have them on my car and you will never know they are there. Definitely not loose. They were designed to be snug as OrbitalEllipses can attest to. Having too loose of a fit kind of defeats the purpose of the hub centric ring.
