Zed 2.0 Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 I'm going to order some decals for the center caps on my new wheels, and would like them to arrive about the same time the wheels do. The center caps are the "Daytona," the standard caps for the Rota Torque. The site I'm getting the decals from requires a measurement for the center cap (in inches). Does anybody know what size they are? Thanks a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zed 2.0 Posted October 17, 2008 Author Share Posted October 17, 2008 Ok, so for anybody else's reference, 2.5" is not the proper size for a Rota center cap decal. At 2.5", there is a gap on all sides of the decal. My mistake for thinking somebody on the internet would know that they're talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denver133 Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 2 1/2 inches is not 2.5" dude. There are 12" in a foot so 2 and 1/2 = 2.6". Can't get mad at him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigInALegacy Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 that would be correct, with 2.5 feet... it is late, so i may be wrong... but i may be right. i think an honest mistake in any case... what do they look like? pics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you aren't in engineering. pics? I'll take some close-up pics if/when I order the correct size. The matte black vinyl looks great with my flat black rims, but the fact that there's a 1/10" gap on all sides of the decal looks terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dvdt Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 2 1/2 inches is not 2.5" dude. There are 12" in a foot so 2 and 1/2 = 2.6". Can't get mad at him. :lol: let me try to help you out here. 2 1/2 feet is not 2.5" dude. There are 12" in a foot so 2 and 1/2 feet = 2'-6". Can't get mad at him. or 2 1/2 inches is not 2'-5" dude. There are 12" in a foot so 2 and 1/2 feet = 30". Can't get mad at him. or 2 1/2 inches is not 2'-5" or 2'-6" dude. There are 12" in a foot so if your center cap is over 2 feet in diameter, I think you have bigger things to be mad at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
