I am having a problem locating some plain center caps for the Impala SS wheels I have on the Roadmaster. Any suggestions would be appreciated. BTW, the 17" wide rim wheels make the handling a lot better than the OEM wheels.
Cheers Warren

You can use centers off of several cars. Impala SS (of course) but of the newer style with the 5 spoke wheels (16"). Many of the newer Malibu wheels were similar (early 2000's). Some have a black background with a bow tie and others have a carbon fiber back ground also with a bow tie.
Or you can purchase vinyll decals for the Impala SS centers.
BTW the wheels are 17" tall and 8.5" wide.

Warren,
Mike has the right idea. There are several styles out there. They work well on the stock Impala center caps. $20 is more than a fair price for a set of 4.

The flat center caps you are thinking of come from the Chevy Venture minivan.
