Tercel Steel Wheel Center Caps Fitment

Looking to cover the hub centers on my car with the steel wheels. I came across black plastic ones from '90s Tercels and Corollas and would like to know if they'll fit before ordering something I cant return. Looking for a clean steel wheel look with no trim rings. Hate chrome

I run a set of the plastic Tecel ones on Crashy and they fit tightly. Others have had mixed results with some finding that they were loose.

Do they come off and and one easily, I'd kinda prefer them tight

You have to really yank them to get them off (kind of like a hubcap).

I got a set of these off of eBay this winter...

I think that as long as you get a set of new ones, they'll be on there for good. Mine snapped on tightly and have made it through pothole season.

Not sure on the part number, but I got them from this seller on eBay if that helps.

I've been rocking the center caps just like pictured above. Bought mine as New Old Stock.

I've not had any trouble with fitment.

Thanks for the part number CT.
