    Yep, it is standard operating procedure for garages to lose your beautiful, top-quality OEM tire valve caps.

    Do what I plan to do. Get some cheap ones from Amazon and replace the Japanese OEM Pacific Industrial Co., Ltd. tire valve caps with those whenever you take the car to a garage or service. Then, put the OEM tire valve caps back. You can get the OEM ones for cheap at the next Black Friday sale.

    Whenever I hand either the car, or loose wheels, over to a tire shop, the valve caps are in my pocket.

    What ARE you on about; those are stock, gen 3 Plug-In rims.

    Can't find the spares now. Those things are easy to lose. :)
