Check a scrap yard or a place that resells dakota wheels. That is what I did when I bought 15x8 rims for my 97 dak.

If you're talking about the 15x7 rims (cover all lugs). It is because they are direction sensitive. I have 4 slighly used covers I would be willing to sell. I would take $10 for each.

The local tyre shop gave me some when I bought 4 month old snow tyres with used 16" Alumninum rims and all 4 of those caps. I really like those caps, but I didn't know they were that expensive for those little things.

I don't mean to sound like the grinch, but they're ripping you off. Next Sunday, drive down to the dealership just after sunset. Browse around for a minute or two and grab the center cap from a dak on the lot. They probably get those things by the hundred for a couple dollars. When someone buys the one you ripped it off of, they'll replace it with one from another one (like they did to mine) and that trend will continue until they send that particular truck on a dealer trade. Then, the trend will start there until sooner or later, someone will buy it who really doesn't care.

Unless of course you just want to do it the legal way. But that's no fun.
