Default Magnesium Wheel Center Caps

Is the center cap inside diameter the same on the C-5 Magnesium as the 93 C-4 turbine wheel? I like the looks of the magnesium wheels but would only if the Ruby caps fit.

Just to confirm, they won't fit.

The center cap on the magnesium wheels is 2.5" diameter and the center cap on my 96 sawblades is 3.0"diameter.

I just got these wheels yesterday and they look great even with the C5 logo on the center caps.
