Hi All,

I had the R20s tires rebalanced today, and didn't check to make sure the caps got put on well when I picked it up. As a gentle reminder that checking that out is a good idea, I saw one gracefully flying off at highway speeds straight into the median when I drove it home. Lots of 70+ mph traffic talked me out of the idea of trying to walk back and get it.

Any difference in dog dish diameters? These would be for a 16" factory rim, are they the same as what came on a 1/2 ton 15" rim?

Thanks for the help.

I think my eBay searching might have answered this question: 12" diameter for 3/4 tons, 10" for 1/2 tons?
