If you're talking about the HD centercaps, I saw this in a thread but it doesn't say where they need to be modded.

and all the aftermarket HD reps can use the factory center cap with some slight modding of the centercap.
i wouldnt suggest going with HD reps in stock 20" size for weight savings. Guys have posted up before the quality on the 20" reps isnt very good in comparison to stock, and it makes sense since they are still 20" cast chrome rims. so unless they are forged rims in the same style and size, they would be a better quality, stronger rim, lighter rim, but a lot more money. A cast replica 20" rim will almost definately have poorer quality than stock 20's. I think HD2NV8 had a 20" rep to replace one of his damaged stock rims, and he ended up buying another OEM 20" rim because he wasnt happy with its quality.
you will shed a little weight with going to 22" replicas. I think they are just a few pounds lighter each than stock. like 4-5 lbs at most.
if you are looking to shed 20 lbs a wheel, no way you are going to do it with a set of HD reps with anywhere near a decent amount of quality.
IMO if you really want to shed the rotating mass and get new rims, find some deep dish 5 spoke forged rims (centerlines, etc.) that you like and get a set of those. Then at least you will be able to see where your money went with the one of a kind look to your HD, as well as feel the difference of the lighter weight

?
What brand do you have? I just checked mine, not on the truck yet, and the stock caps fit perfect. they are Detroit brand reps
ok, finally got tires put on them and had time to put them on the truck, on mine they sent me these long lug nuts that wont let the stock cap snap in place so I need to pick up some shorter ones I guess. Is that what is keeping yours from fitting?
