Default Center Caps Popping Off

I have the factory alluminum wheels that use the 2" disc type center caps. These things keep popping off in my travels (All on-road). In less than a year I have lost a total of 5 of them. Contantly replacing them is starting to get a little out of control. Does anyone else have this problem, and is there a solution? I have thought about using super glue, but didn't know if it could damage the finish on the wheel.
Thanks for any info!

NO to super glue, first it eats plastic and second it won't stick to aluminum because it's pouruos. If you want to glue them try clear silicone or contact cement.


Curious, are they covered under warranty? (yea right) [sm=smiley24.gif]

HEMI X, Nope, not covered under warrenty. Ha Ha, that's a good one! Thanks for the welcome! Depending on where I find them they are between $15.00 - $30.00 each!
I have been able to get a couple off of EBay for a reasonable amount.
Thanks for the info, I will give the silicone a try.
