Centre wheel caps

[Keith Harris]

After having my useless hubcaps removed (now I can actually inflate the tyres) I’m looking for a centre mg cap but I’m finding it a little confusing size wise, has anyone got any recommendations for my ZS EV please

Wheel covers

Good morning one more question that hopefully someone has an answer to. Does anyone know how to remove the aero covers hubcaps from the new mgzs? this sits on a real alloy rim, the comfort version rim that I quite like. You can easily pull off a normal hubcap, but I can't get these caps off...

Would these fit the MG4 wheels?

You could check the measurements given above, to check against your MG4 wheels to be sure.

I love the hub caps. So easy to replace if get scuffed and easier to clean than my BMW mags. Sorry can't help.

@smallbr I agree! The plastic aero covers clean up so easily with a brush and soapy water. I don’t find the alloy wheels attractive at all, so I’m happy they are covered up.

Got a set on Amazon for the MG4. Thanks.

What did you get - Can you share the link please (for my 4) ... I've also wondered if the ZS Gen1 hubs would fit lol

 

[Lovemyev]

The below are listed on Amazon as suitable for the MG4 but I would double check the dimensions against the measurements provided in the photo below.
You then check the size against your ZS EV Gen1 also.
I suspect the measurement are the same, but just check .

I have no problem with the design Susanna , it’s just I couldn’t inflate the tyres which for me was a bit of a problem

Hi Keith,
I appreciate that it's a nuisance to screw on a short valve stem extender temporarily before measuring and topping up tyre pressures, and removing it afterwards, but that's what I do if I don't like the look of the pressures displayed by the TPMS .

Problem for me was I took more pressure out than put in, still all sorted now just waiting for my new MG centre pieces and I’ll post a photo

I bought an adaptor that screws onto the tyre pump, and turns it into a "push and lock" fitting instead of the screw on fitting - problem solved!

Same here. Makes it super easy.

I bought the same, as recommended on here.

OK, here's the thing & has been covered a number of times here & on other ZS EV fora:

The hubcaps are usually fitted incorrectly from the factory (potluck) and are not necessarily rotated to the correct position. Only one hole is designed for the air valve to correctly project.

Remove the caps by gripping at the centre of the cap, fingers close to the middle & pull. Look closely at the holes & you will find that one cut-out is a little different, slightly larger & closer to the edge of the wheel. Rotate & align this with the air valve and press back on. Viola, no problems in inflating via an air pump.

It took my son (a mechanic) about five mintues to figure this out and rotate for me. The hub caps I find very useful & they ceratinly stop wheel rash (unlike the gen 1 alloys) & if damaged, can be easily & inexpensively replaced.
