Noble Wheel Pop Quiz Question!

[AMG Merc]

OK Nobility, here's a pop quiz question for you:

I took off 4 x original 2.5 GTO wheels to fit my new trick painted 3R wheels back on (news to follow). All wheels off and the first three 3R wheels went back on perfectly but whenever I offered up the final wheel to the hub I couldn't get it aligned - and the plastic centre cap popped out every time! FYI, it was the nearside front. This was very frustrasting until...


What was occuring and how did I sort it?

[l6nex]

Trying to put a back wheel on the fron or vice versa by any chance!!!

[paulcundy]

put the beers away, slept it off, started afresh next morning?

[Mr Noble]

Realised you were putting them on the Merc?

[paulcundy]

two wheels on one hub don't go?

[AMG Merc]

Nope, nope and nope!

[mgbond]

The center bit of the 2.5 wheels (that holds the large nut) was left on the hub?

Bondy

[worty]

Centre cap from the old wheel still stuck to the hub ?

[paulcundy]

there was an Albanian hiding in the wheel arch?

[daddysumo]

you realised that the paint where the hub lip engages into the wheel is too thick so the lip wont fit ?

Yes, the centre cap stuck on the hub and looked like part of the wheel! Bondy and Worty you are indeed true Nobility!
