Default Wheel center caps

Are center caps on aftermarket wheels standardized, meaning are they all the same diameter and interchangable from manufacturer to manufacturer? If so, has anyone ever looked in to different center caps? I would love to have some "Z" center caps for my new wheels. Just curious.

they are all different sizes. even the same wheels sometimes have different diameters when PCD is different.

Thanks, Kenchan. I was afraid that was true. A google search did find a place where I can purchase decals for center caps, but I was hoping something a little nicer than that. Guess I will live with the TSW caps.

you can always sand them down flat and paint them.
