Is there a lower profile grease cap that will allow me to get my Jaguar hub covers installed on my front wheels? Machining them will take many hours.

I have these wheels, and the grease caps prevent me from putting the plastic jag caps on the fronts.

 

I am not sure if a lower profile cap will clear the axle nut. Not a lot of excess space under the OEM cap as it is.

 

I ran into this problem using X308 wheels on my X300.

Couldn't find a shorter cap. "Reshaped"...carefully...the originals with my trusty little hammer

Thank you, this sounds like the best course of action.

 

How about a spacer to move the wheel out 1/4" or so???

 

I was considering this as well, but I would need spacing in the rear as well and I wonder if it would make stance look funny. I think I have a set of spacers in my toolbox somewhere I can try.
