I had the tire pressure caps. After getting ripped off I went back to the old black ones. No problem since.

Seems like no one wants the normal black plastic ones...

I have had caps on my Fiero wheels that are from a set off BBS racing wheels. I have twisted on tight. While I can get them off a kid can't.

most of them have edges on the like a bolt (alot or the chrome ones do)....so , if you're careful you can tighten them pretty good with a wrench...and keep that wrench in the car....oh , and i'm sorry if i seemed a little anal , and for bringing politics into it in my previous post....i just need to vent sometimes , and i use the internet alot for that....but don't forget to vote for me when i run for office...my 1st agenda is to give myself a salary cut , and then try to get rid of the many government jobs that are totally unnecesary

Just make sure you remove the little rubber o-ring inside the cap if you do that; otherwise it will force the o-ring down inside the valve and cause the tire to go flat. Just an FYI
