I recently purchased these American Racing center caps, but they do not fit my vintage General Lee Vector 10 Spoke 15x7 rims.
What can I do?  Make them fit by opening the center hole of the rim?
Or where can I buy some that fit?

A friend of mine had the same problem. They almost went in but stopped just short, so he Gently tapped them the rest of the way with a rubber mallet. So far so good!
I pointed to two old drunks sitting across the bar from us and told my friend
"That's us in 10 years".
He said "That's a mirror, dip-shit!

I didn't have that issue with the rims I bought.  The caps actually fit a bit loose.
Slightly off topic, but can the caps be bought separate?  One of the decals came off one of my caps and it's kind of annoying me.

I have a spare cap AND decal that hasn't been fitted.
Make an offer

I really really wish that they made these in a 17-18" rim :(
