Default Wheel Center Hub Cap size?

What is the size of the Wheel Center Hub Caps (growlers) of the stock wheels (hydra's in my case)?

I've found that Wish sells them for about $8 a set of four. I think it wouldn't hurt to try them. The sellers list them as: 58 mm or 2 -¼". They have them in several colors: growler with choice of black, red, green, yellow or blue background, R logo with black blackground, or monochrome Union Jack with Jaguar spelt on it. I'm thinking of getting the Union Jack ones.

58mm is correct.

Thanks, in that case, as soon as I finally decide which one I want I'll go ahead with the purchase.

There was a recent discussion on aftermarket (Chinese) versus OE Jaguar (made in Italy) Wheel Centres.

1. complaint about OE - the cost
2. complaint about aftermarket - not a good fit

I've used both types in the past. OE is consistent but aftermarket can be a lottery.

Well, I'll keep you posted on quality when they arrive in about a month or so. However, looking through the pictures in the listing, they have "Made in Italy" in the back of the centers. If they're no good, I can always use the ones I already have.
