After going over my "new to me" Country Coach for hours and Hours We closed the deal and my wife and I hit the road. After about 5 weeks I noticed that my wheels looked a little truckish and incomplete. Guess what, they were. The center caps were missing from the front and tag wheels. Now how could I miss such a shiney mistake.
My friends said to stop in any truck stop and pick the 4 caps you need.
I did and they did not. Now after a while I discovered that the Front, Duel, and tag wheels had different type caps. The front center caps did not snap into the hub as reported. They were held in place by every other lug nut, (5). The Tags threw me another curve. The hubs stuck out about 1/4",not allowing the cap to pull up flush, now what.
Only in RVs would you find such a mess. Help!
I have a 06 Affinity 40' with tags. I hope someone can shed some light on this mess.

Go to http://www.75chromeshop.com/ (http://www.75chromeshop.com/) They are in Wilwood Florida but they do ship. I have used them many times and they are very helpful.
The web site may take a little drilling down but you will finally be able to get to any hub cap you may need.
If you are ever there the guys in the store will go out to your rig and tell you exactly what caps will fit. If you don't plan any trips to Florida then call them. I would imagine they are as helpful on the phone as they are in person.
I have been dealing with them for 20 years through my CC and 4 SOB's and they have never dissapointed me.

Hi, Joey again. This link will take you directly to the "hubcaps" area on 75 Chrome Shop's site http://www.75chromeshop.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=13_76_160 (http://www.75chromeshop.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=13_76_160)
You will probably have to copy and paste because it will likely be split across two lines.

Charles, if your wheels are like my 07 Intrigue 12153, the fronts look pretty much like baby moons, with no outside chrome lip in the side.
The tags are really different, with a side lip at least 1/2 inch wide.
So yes, you need two very different models.
