Greetings all,
I recently acquired a 1997 2WD Ranger with the following stock alloy wheels...

I'd like to reduce the chances of the wheels or hubcaps getting tampered with or stolen, so I want to eliminate the snap-on hubcaps and swap out the stock lug nuts for some splined or locking ones.
The problem is that I can't find a center cap or hubcap that can't easily be removed. Anyone have any suggestions for a center cap that is either secured by the lug nuts, inserts from the back, or otherwise attaches in a manner that prevents it from easily being removed?
Thanks for any assistance you can provide!
