Chrome center caps

Hey guys, unfortunately a year ago someone stole one of my center caps (i have the chrome rims) i need some input as to which of these i should bid on and if there is a difference (if there is) between the metal or plastic caps. cause when i look at my rim, when they took the cap the inside part is beat up a bit like there was something really attached into it.

Don't assume someone stole it just because you live in Queens. Really, it could have been broken during a tire mount, balance or rotate and the tire place pieced it back together or got the spring ring caught crooked and it spun off while driving. Happened to me- twice.

Yup, these caps fall of very easily. Because caps are held in place with an o-ring only and guys at the tire shop do not know how to remove these. The picture on this website to show you. I am thinking about buying these blue rim ones next time.
