Are wheel center caps a standard size across different types of wheels? I only have one original center cap left and I'd like to replace them. Any tips on a source or sizing info would be appreciated.
Thanks-AMB

Center caps are different in size even for the same car manufacturer. Measure yours and hit ebay, here's one example: http://www.ebay.com/itm/SAAB-NEW-SET-OF … mp;vxp=mtr

So what size is a linear center cap? Just went lookin' and I don't have any left. Any users on here have replace theirs and are happy, please pass along a product recommendation.

9-2x center caps only fit 9-2x wheels. All 9-2x center caps are the same, but they do not fit other saabs. Other saab center caps will not fit 9-2x wheels. Find a listing for 9-2x center caps and 9-2x center caps only. If they say they fit other saabs then they are the wrong ones. The correct center caps have a Subaru part number on the back; 28821FE040. If they have an 8 digit GM part number then they are the wrong ones.

I thought I bought the correct size ones off ebay once, and they slid in nice, but were loose and moved around. I instead just put new decals on the original ones.

Will the Saab caps fit a similar year Subaru wheel that has been put on the 9-2x? I saw some the other day for cheap.

I bought a set of 9-2x center caps from a 2005 17" Aero set, and they were not the same size as the 2005 Subaru 17" Legacy GT wheels I was running. So, no - Subaru and Saab center caps are not interchangeable.

Yeah I learned the hard way that the Saab center caps aren't universal. I ordered a set of 4 that stated fitment was correct for the Saab 9-2x but obviously if it stated the fitment for other Saabs it won't fit the Saabaru. I'm still trying to source a new shiny set...I replaced my hood and bonnet emblems. The paint is fairly fresh on my red 2005 9-2x Aero and the factory set of Enkie wheels look good...so some fresh center caps will go long way. I get positive comments on my 9-2x quite frequently and Subaru guys/gals always look at my 9-2x like WTF!!
