Yes, the lug nuts hold them in place. They don't move around or anything. Had mine on my Jeep for almost 3 years now.

I almost painted them white, but changed my mind at the last minute. I might fill in the Jeep logo in white, but I think they look decent, and saved me $40 that they wanted for the center caps.

Looks really good! I think you made the right choice by just painting the center caps black instead of white. Only wish I had nice rims like that. My rims are all chrome and talk about pitting!! Chrome sucks.

+1 did the same with mine, painted them black to match the rim...looks great and I like little things like leaving the Jeep logo on rim.

x2 on the Gorilla center caps from Summit Racing. Bought them in black for cheaper (I think) than the Cragar center caps. Just verify the diameter with the Cragar ones - can't remember if they had different sizes available. I can post a pic later if you'd like to see it.

Edit: Didn't see how old the thread was.
