I have been thinking about moving the center caps in closer on my rockstars for some time now. I think they would look a lot better if you made them flush with the wheel. Keep me posted if you do anything!

a guy in town has done this on his tahoe and i think it looks better normal.

yep, cut about 1" or so off. I cannot remember how much I cut, but it was quite a bit. Than you have to get shorter screws also. If you decide to black out the stars, plastic coat them instead of paint. That way when you hit them at the car wash the paint doesn;t come off.

I cut my screws down and re-threaded the ends.
