NO!
They are rings that fit around the hub to make sure that the wheel is centered perfectly. Mass-produced wheels are not made to fit each car specifically, so those rings are needed on some cars like the tC.
THAT could be your problem. They look like black plastic o-rings (hard) that are about 2.5" in diameter.

As for my center caps, they didn't work and the guy I bought the rims from is sending me the domed units.

I'm NOT going ghetto by gluing or taping on my caps - and you're letting all kinds of crap in there to boot.
Get the right caps.

I will post pix tomorrow - I spent the day doing other things and only got my old rims detailed and boxed away.

They look awesome.

Any wheel dealer has them.
Whoever put them on should have known that.
Good luck.
