I keep losing all of my wheel centres!

Does anyone have the same problem?

It's because the air pressure builds up behind them due to heat and pops them out (you must be driving it quickly!). If you drill a very small hole at the edge of the wheel centre it will enable pressures to equalize and prevent the problem happening again.
