Hello,

My car has the 15" wheels, and the center cap has come off on one wheel. I went to the dealer, and they could not find any replacement part, and two local tire shops + Autozone didn't have it..

Anyone have a part number?

Do you mean the wheel cover? There is no 'center cap' on the Yaris steel wheels.

uhm, hub cap? Its about 2, 2-1/2" diameter, in the very center of the wheel.

The dealership said my wheels were non-stock, but I doubt it...

Here are some photos. Compare the two, you'll see the center thing is missing.

Hopefully someone here will be able to tell me a) if its possible to buy the center 'thing', part number, etc. or b) if they are not stock wheels.

I thought I told imgur to rotate this, but it did not obey swidd, however compare front and back, and see what's missing:

Center caps for 15" steel

This is what threw us off. We all figured you were talking about 15" stock steelies, which of course do not have center caps. Those are definitely not stock, and you will probably have to contact the wheel manufacturer, or a distributer, or do an ebay search.

The brand of those are Motegi Racing. Very common, and an ebay may yield you some results.

To be more specific, they look like Motegi TRAKLITE 1.0 wheels.

wow, thanks, I've always thought I had stock wheels. An ebay search reveals that these sell for over $1000 for a set of four! Did I just get lucky, or did the dealership give out candy three years ago...
