There's the press on kind that has a spring clip and a bigger kind that covers the lugs. I don't know how the bigger kind is held on. I've seen them at the dealer parts counter as POS says and also at www.************************

i have called performance and they do not have these. the star is outside on top of the lugs and a 10 mm nut holds them on. the guy i bought the car from said they were on it when he bought the car in 2000.

Maybe we're not talking about factory wheels. Do you have Centra wheels?
