WANTED - 4 x Centre Caps for 17" Meteor Alloys

[Arthur Quantize]

Just wondering if anyone might have any spare centre caps up for grabs for the 17" Rover Meteor alloys? They're the larger disc type ones; I think the part number is RRJ000050MNH.

Crossing my fingers...

Thanks!

Seen a couple of sets on ebay recently. I'm also gonna be looking for these .... at least I will when my alloys finally arrive and then when I get around to finding some tyres for them

I've seen some on eBay which are Silver Sparkle centre caps, but supposedly a different shade of silver to the Meteors (can anyone confirm this?). If the difference isn't noticable I'd definitely buy them!

Contact the ebay seller ZWarehouse. They have had them in the past.

Yep, I have been wating for a set of four from a dealer since December now, at a scary £81.92!!!

Found the eBay user - thezwarehouse. Unfortunately these are the guys I bought my wheels off and they now say that they're on back order.

It gets worse, after ringing them to find out where the wheels are (ordered well before Christmas) it turns out that the ones they put on one side for my order have been damaged - so badly damaged that they are now only fit for scrap as they're not even round anymore!

Looks like I don't need centre caps anymore, I actually need a set of alloys, tyres AND centre caps

Nice of them to let you know

at least you can lok for another set of wheels that come with caps this time

Really sorry to here this and this really paniced me, as I also bought the Meteors from zwarehouse at around the same time as you (see my other thread about wheels). Mine arrived late last week .. only to find that 3 of them had small marks on them (looks like the outer packaged got punctured). zwarehouse were great about it and agreed to send 3 replacements (in fact they even said to keep the originals as they are not worth enough to them to return !!). Anyway the replacements have just arrived at home ... I'm at work so no chance to checking them out before tonight. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that these are OK.

Glad to hear that you managed to get replacements, as when I spoke to them yesterday and they broke the news about mine, they said they had someone that was requiring replacements as they had received damaged wheels (I wonder if it was you?!) but they claimed that they didn't even have enough to replace them. I really hope that your replacements are ok, although I'm sure they will be. Out of interest, how badly marked were yours when they came; they told me that the ones they had left were so badly damaged that they were not even round any more!?

I've also just asked our local hero (Les at SMC) if he had anything knocking around, and he said that he's heard that they've done this many many times before now
