Does anyone know the I.d of the centre cap hole in the contessa alloys. I'm in UK and have found some 60mm GB caps that I think might fit!! Thanks |

Depends on which wheel you have, there's different sizes. The earlier ROH Contessas are 67mm measured off the caps I have here. |

Like these??? I made 4 once on my bench lathe, not making more, but I'm sure someone could churn them out on a bigger lathe or a CNC one. Material was black HDPE plastic. Depth inside has to clear the hub nut & split pin. They are now on a friend's Cooper S that is seldom driven.
