Solstice Wheels What Chevy Center Caps?

I got some solstice wheels for my hrr and was wondering what center caps you guys are running on yours. Ive heard a couple different answers all from people who dont have these wheels so I would like to know for sure so I get the right ones the first time, thanks.

Just in case you hadn't already considered it....you can always mask/paint the gold bowtie to match your body color....or contrast it (made mine black)

I ordered all mine for just at 10 bucks, gotta love ebay! What lug nuts are you guys running with these wheels? My stock ones wont work because I had hub caps. So I ordered some stainless capped nuts but they are too long. Will just the factory lugs work that came with the alloy wheels?

I think I've read that you will need shims for the Solstice wheels, in which case that's going to matter when you chose your lugnuts. If you need the shims (for clearance reasons) then you need extra deep lugnuts, or longer studs. Otherwise you won't be grabbing enough threads.

I'm runnng these anodized tuner style lugs from Gorrilla. I think they look and work great and come in chome or a few colors... They are quite deep and would doubt that you'd need the shims...
