Need help with wheel center caps

My wheels came in and are in pretty good shape. One has damaged paint from a wheel weight and the UPS man was nice enough to put a small dent in the lip of one wheel (very small). The wheels I have are the 2002 Limited 5 spokes - they are a little thicker than the earlier 5 spokes. Does anyone know if these center caps will work with them? They are for the stock 6 spoke 4Runner/Tacoma wheels:


I played with the plastic center caps from my 94 4runner and although I can cram them in there is a gap between the plastic cap and the spoke shape of the wheel.

These are the wheels I bought:

They won't work. The wheels you bought are the same ones that I have on my 02. Two of the center caps were missing when I picked up my truck from the dealer. Dealer tried 3 different types of caps (from Taco and 4Runner) and none would work. He had to order the correct kind.

Thanks. I guess I'll cram my current black ones in for now and get the right ones. I probably won't run any up front since I have manual hubs - unless I can pop the end off of one of the stock ones.
