I'm looking for a set of flush center caps.

The set of wheels and tires mounted, balanced, set of lug nuts and shipped was $2340.

They didn’t come with center caps?

Yikes. A 26lb drop per corner in unsprung weight would make it feel like an entirely new truck.

Nailed it on the wheel/tire combo man!

Worse case, take the wheels to a paint shop and have them take care of the machined edges.
Or grab some masking tape and quality spray cans (they do exist, check Rhino Art) and go to town.

the stock SS 20’s with 275/55/20 tire weighs 79lbs, these wheels with tire weighs 64lbs.
Nitto shows the 295/40/20 G2's weigh 35.94#'s so, the wheels are right around 28#'s.

Where? I didn't see anything on the Cosmis site about weight, could have missed it though.

Not finding any info on Rhino Art via Google.

Yes they came with caps but I'm not a fan. I initially wanted all black wheels but the machined edge is kinda growing on me. I love how the wheels look in person. Pictures don't show them as well as in person.

About to tackle the electrical upgrade to compliment the 200amp alternator, fuel pumps and e-fans.
