WedSport TC105n hub ring/center cap interest list

I have been approached by a member here about doing a group buy for these, they would be anodized black and would cost about the same as the caps from Wed's. I believe they are made for the 17x8 and 17x9 sizes and they are slightly different. We would need to get about 10 sets made to do them at that price so please post if interested and if so what size wheels you have. I was thinking some custom engraving would be cool with either the 86 logo or something else if we could all agree on something. That would probably put the cost in the $200 range but isn't neccessary i just thought it would make them a little more special.

I'm down for some black Anodized Hubcentric Rings/Center Caps if it's around $140 which is how much I can get the Weds Center Caps locally.

Engraved logo would be cool, but not worth the extra cost, in my own opinion - could just get some stick-on plastic caps like the BMW ones made cheaper I bet, but I can see some guys interested in that.

To those wondering why you'd spend the same on these as the Weds, the Weds are *ONLY* center caps, they are not dual-purpose. In other words, you have to choose between hubcentric rings or the Weds caps, whereas these serve both purposes.

Agreed on the cost and people could always have their own engraved if they wanted that special touch, you could probably also find a TRD or STi sticker off ebay that might work too.

I'm kinda interested in these if some STi logo could be stamped on or somehow placed on it. I already orderd Weds center caps for my TC105N wheels. Just FYI, price shipped for those was $145.

Seems like it's become too costly. Engraved at the same price as the weds wheels would have worked, but plain black caps just don't seem worth it to me

You are getting the hub ring included, the weds cap doesn't allow for the use of them. All opinions are welcomed though we're just trying to help out

Wouldn't match my wheel color and a tad expensive for plain caps. I appreciate a hub ring AND center cap combo that works, but I'd have to get them powdercoated to match, etc..

How much would we be saving by having it go plain?

You have my attencion but if its three figures i'll probably be out.

Being custom made I think they may be worthy of the price, but the money could go towards other stuff.

I appreciate you and mystery member approaching us about these.
