All of our wheels including our 2005+ wheels are designed to work with 1994-2004 OEM Style Center Caps. As long as the wheels take 2.5" sized caps you are good to go.

Of course, after I posted this, I realized that they should fit b/c I bought American Muscle wheels. Sorry to bother you. Thanks so much!

I am debating buying these to give me a little color contrast with my chrome rims. Let me know how you like them Kimberly

Anyone know how to remove a center cap?

With the wheel off the car lying face down (on a protected surface as not to damage the wheel finish), push on the back of the center cap with both thumbs and it will pop right out. Flip over the wheel and pop the new cap in the same way.

Seriously!!?? I have to remove the wheels from the car? The engineers at Ford who designed the rear speaker replacement for 2008 Mustangs must have had a hand in this!
Thank you, Nick!!

Noooooo

Nick is just trying to prevent you from suing American Muscle.

I put those on my 2008 GT rims. Check out my gallery, they look sick with black lugs!


I found some tool lying around, similar to a large flathead screwdriver, and wedged it between the stock caps and wheel. Pry'd em out, somewhat hard to do. Tiny little scratches, but nothing noticeable.

Overall it was very easy for me and I'm happy with the result!

That might work, but taking off your wheels results in 0 damage when done right. For anyone that wants to try the screwdriver method though, I do not condone it what-so-ever, so any damage to your wheel or center cap is at your own risk! That said...possibly using some electrical tape on the screwdriver tip might help prevent damage.

For the record, I will be taking my wheels off (all 8 of them).
Now I've decided I want the center caps off the '06 on the '08 and will put the new ones on the '06.

My "V8" center caps arrived yesterday and we will be installing them today. I do like the way they look. I'll post pix.
