I've still got the stock ones, but the center caps were either stolen, or fell off before this it was mine, the previous owner didn't know, so I just took the tops off of a chain link fence and cut two V cuts into each of them and popped them right in with a rubber mallet to make it look like its meant to be the way it is now :P didn't turn out half bad if you ask me

18X8 Konigs, can't remember the model. Got them from America's Tire. Not my first choice when I went looking, but they were about $145 per corner plus installation. They're also available with red or silver accents.
