As the title states I need a full set of 16 chrome hubcap clips as the ones I found online manufactured by RPM do not fit and fall out...

I assume they will be the same useless clip produced by the company RPM. I purchased 16 useless clips manufactured by RPM from ecstuning
http://www.ecstuning.com/Search/SiteSearch/321601175b/
The picture is deceiving. The problem is the little tab on the bottom is bent too far snd sits far too loose into the wheel and just falls off... When attempting to bend the clips back to where they are suppoose to be the tab breaks off. Looks to be a manufacturing error. I checked all over the net and it appears this is the only company supplying these clips and they all are garbage.

I ended up with a set of those same clips from ECS and they are garbage indeed. I broke two and started to think differently. Ended up with two sets of rims instead. Snowflakes and some Riken ones for summer. Still have the clips and caps.
