Default wilwood front wheel hub dust cap and Fikse cemter cap issue

Hello guys

I have had my new Fikse wheels sitting in my house for almost a year, and finally got the chance to mount them after I had gotten my car back from the bodyshop.

I have run into an issue with the wilwood front wheel hub dust cap and the Fikse wheel center cap fitment. The wheel hub dust cap is a bit sticking further out causing the center cap not to fit.



I am wondering has anybody run into this issue and what was the solution to get this center cap to sit properly.

Really appreciate your input guys
