    Yeah, the 99's have Trooper wheels, just shinier. The 18's are another creature entirely. Taller, wider, different centers, different spoke details.

    The factory center caps are attached with 3 bolts from the inside of the wheel and the cap extends to the center of the bolt circle. The caps on dg's wheels are held on by the lugnuts, if I'm not mistaken and the circumference extends outside the bolt circle, like some older isuzu caps.

    SGT, refresh your memory of the caps/rims with the pics below or copy them both to your desktop for a side by side - I posted a pic of a stock rim and cap and it IS the same as the one modified.

    I don't see your pics, but here's mine . This is NOT a factory 18" cap, but I'm pretty sure it IS the type DG is using.

    Note the holes around the lug nuts.

    I can't post images, but the pic is in my gallery.

    I know this is an old post, but, I researched a little and see a few VX pics on this site from different members have different Isuzu OEM center caps on their stock 18"s. I'm seeing one type that is in fact smaller and just mounted to the wheel itself from behind as SGT.BATGUANO said, not through the lug nuts...like this:

    While others have caps that are mounted through the wheel lug nuts and are wider....like this:

    Was this an Isuzu change in design or something else??
    hmmm........?
