No doubt. I'm currently on the hunt for someone who can make me some custom center caps. There's a brand name on the back of these OEM caps so I'm going to google them and see if there is a way that they either offer or can make me some plain caps or even caps with a bowtie. We shall see :)

I picked up the rims tonight and they are definitely nice! If worse comes to worse and I can't find different center caps the I can sell these for more than I paid for them. So I couldn't really lose on these :)

That's my thought too. I may even investigate local shops that may be able to make me a one off set or something. I'll get it figured out I think:)

As I search for different center caps I'm wondering if these rims are still too new to have generic or plain caps available for them. I think they've only been out since 2007 so is it possible that they'll eventually have someone who produces a generic cap for them? The reason I ask this is because I see all kind of other plain caps for the other GM wheels but nothing so far for this one so I'm wondering if that is the case :think:

I found generic caps for mine. Mine are way more common though. Probably will take more time for generic caps to come out.

:banghead: I'm now searching for ABS plastic fabricators. We'll see if I find anyone willing to do a job as small as this :D I may just have to run around with GMC centers until I get what I want :)

Or maybe find someone that can cut the GMC part out of the cap, fill in the hole, and re-chrome it.... or whatever the hell they do to plastic to make it shiny.

Once you get them, you can actually get precise measurements. I found a set I would suspect may fit. They are "blanks" that were made to fit Escalade 22 inch rims. I suspect that the center would be the same size. The problem is that the e-bay sellers aren't very helpful in getting you pics with measurements of the bask of the cap.
