I had some before. They're easy to fit, but you have to remove the tyres to do so, so it's probably worth waiting until you have to change the tyres.

Spin caps just look huge,
I would just stick with black ones,
I have had my Kahn ones (£5 EACH) on for about 6 months now, no pikies have nicked them yet,
But my car is always parked in quite a good place,
I intend on taking the Kahns off soon and putting some cheaper metal ones on from ebay, they look just the same as Kahn, just plain chrome, look smart, only like £4 too

I just have black plastic ones, they must be about 10p to replace if someone chooses to steal one.
