I like the look of the wheels on my 2.0 Premium. The three-part spokes look kind of like the cross-section of an insect stinger, or perhaps a mechanical piercing device. Has anyone else noticed this too?


 
I can see it. Nice.
 
Imagine that much thought had gone into designing these wheels? The design does look really nice. Does anyone know if the 18"/19" wheel caps (click link to see if you want) would fit on these wheels SPECIFICALLY? People are asking because they want to cover the bolts on these wheels but I don't know what to tell them...

It appears that the star-shaped wheel caps for the GT wouldn't work on the Premium. However, E badge-style center caps are available for the Type A or Type B wheels on the 2.0. They come in black, red or blue with chrome lettering, and black with smoked lettering. Here's the black with smoked lettering:

Thank you for the information. Yes, there's actually a weird grammatical error on those making them a little silly. As well as the "Live Your Dream". I sell the OEM part here: 4 Kia Stinger OEM 18 Inch Center Caps - The Stinger Store
 
From interior to exterior to high performance - everything you need for your Stinger awaits you...
Yes, agreed. I can't tell for sure, but suspect the ones with extra text might just be thin metal paste-ons. If so, that could be a disappointing surprise. The OEM version is much more substantial and completely replaces the original. Much better solution.

Yes, those are small pieces that fit over the KIA center cap...
