I have a set of empi fuch wheels and I want to change out the center caps to real fuch cap. Do they use the small or large fuch caps?

From what I have heard they take the late style caps. The early three prong caps won't fit. Thanks Ro

Jump bumping this old ass thread up.

I’ve been told to use the 3 prong early caps on empi Fuchs. Can anybody confirm this or is it the ring later style?

Easiest thing is measure your wheels where the caps fit. 3 prong is 66mm hole, later style is 71mm.
