RockTrix Wheels Center Cap Modification

[dlong1119]

Dan, I followed your lead and ordered metal-backed overlays from Etsy, (LogoCarHouse) and went back and forth with a few designs and wound up with these. I'm very happy with the results.

Looks really good! I'm not sure if you've seen it or not, but check out this thread. I've been working with Chris @CampsiteCarbon and we're almost done with a 3D printed replacement cap for them that will be nearly flush and will accept the same size replacement emblems.

Woah love the look! Super clean and makes it look OEM!

I purchased some RockTrix wheels for my Jeep and upon unpacking I was immediately turned off by the center caps that were included. I did not like the logo they used and I did not like the silver. My wheels are all black and the silver in the center cap just threw the look off.

After searching the world for other center cap options that would fit the bore diameter of the RockTrix wheel I realized none existed. RockTrix doesn't even offer any additional options. I could probably tolerate the RockTrix logo if they would offer some type of black on black option.

I decided to make my own center caps by taking the RockTrix caps and modifying them. I wanted some caps that said "Jeep" that were all black. Some factory Jeep wheels use a 64mm black center cap and after some measuring I decided they would work great on the RockTrix cap. The end result was a clean all black factory look.

Here is the link to the Jeep center caps I purchased. They are not Mopar caps but cost 1/4 the cost and worked perfectly - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09V2JN7VQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Here is a POV video I made of the entire step by step process -

I realize this is an old thread. Center caps turned out well. They now make some flat ones.
My question is about the brakes. I’m trying to pick which brand I go with. I normally run the Baer on my Mustangs and have always been happy. How much do you like them on the Jeep? Night and day difference? My only wish is they had some non drilled rotors so I don’t have to worry about rocks in them from wheeling.

Just came across this thread while considering a brake upgrade. Baer seems to have just slotted options now.
