    Hi all,

    New to the forum and appreciate your help ahead of time.

    -What size are the 2017 R15 center caps? I measured and not sure but i think 52mm.

    -what depth? It looks like it clips deep into wheel.

    -Where to purchase? Not trying to buy $80 toyota set though, way to expensive for caps. Looking for ebay or Amazon $20 max for set of 4. Anyone purchase yet?

    Appreciate your time and assistance .

    You can look them up easy, with online Toyota retailers. Google McGeorge Toyota for one, they're my go to. Enter the car stats, search for wheels i think.

    3rd and 4th Gen centre caps have some variation: same bore dia but clips vary.

    Pretty sure 3rd gen doesn't work: interior of bore groove is shifted: clips accordingly are different.

    4th gen is different. Seems like $75.00 is going rate.

    The $64 question: why'd they shift that groove?

    Im just gonna try out these electrical knock out covers for now and wait till China gets up to speed. Not paying $65+ for plastic caps, ridiculous. Time for some MacGyver action...
    Good day gentlemen and until that day comes, keep your ear to the grindstone.

    I used the 1 1/2" knock outs with plumbers nylon tape wrapped around the outside, they worked well then I finally broke down and bought the Toyota suckers, one of the wheels was a little larger than the others and the knock out kept falling out, I wish I could remember the size, I have a bag full of incorrect size ones, my 06 was different than the 11 or the 16, go Toyota;)
    I certainly didn't pay 70$, searching, not finding the source.

    Ah, found them ebay item number 272937718268
