Default Volk center caps - different for GT and LE series??

To make a long story short, i have a set of Volk center caps that i bought for my GT-7, but didn't use. I'm selling them and a buyer wants to know if they will fit the LE or TE series volk wheels. Anyone know if these center caps are interchangeable? Or will these center caps not fit?

Thanks in advance

For 18" Volks, the GT center caps will not fit 18" TE wheels. I tried fitting them on my TE's at a local shop and they were just a little too small. The O-rings wouldn't seat and stay in the wheel. Not sure about the LE but I would guess the GT caps wouldn't fit either. I don't understand why Volk makes all these different size center caps for the same size wheels. There must be 4-5 different types for the 18" wheels.

Sorry this isn't a complete answer but this is what I have experienced.

LE and TE use the same caps (same wheels, just one had the machined lip)

He asked GT vs LE, not LE vs TE

I have GT caps on my LE37s. So i guess they do fit.

I know, I was clarifying what Spork had said (about LE's and TE's)

IIRC there are 2 types cap sizes (might have even been more). GTP, GTN, GTU, GTC (basically the 'older' GT wheels) can share caps with the TE/LE/CE/RE if memory serves correct. The newer multipiece wheels I think use a slightly different size cap.

Post a pic of the cap or pm me with it, I'll tell you tomorrow what it fits...I don't remember what we sent you since it was a while ago

Edit - never mind, just saw your for sale post. Yes, those will fit TE's and LE's.

Thanks for your help adam. I've been going back and forth with the buyer about whether these would fit or not, LoL. Thanks for the clarification.

The caps are sold. You can get them from the Nismo shop for around $110 including shipping. $25 per cap plus shipping.
