Aftermarket Rally I cap: probably, since the cap is retained with a spider bracket under the lug nuts.

OE Rally I cap: probably not, as I imagine the billet wheel is lacking the nubs to retain the production cap.

Yeah, I'm going to go with this.

I know the Rally I center cap fits a steel Chevy Rally wheel because Lou Gramm has Chevy Rally wheels on the front of his GTO. Highly doubt they will fit a billet wheel.

Snapped right in.

This is a production Rally I cap on a 15x8 Corvette wheel.

I'm gonna say no.

Once you get past the 6 lug vs 5 lug issue then I would be concerned with how deep the lug nut counter sinks are in the wheel and the way the cap spider would interface.

Does the wheel manufacturer have some specific cap they sell to go with it?
