I mounted my knock off hub caps tonight. I wanted to share the way I mounted them, because I thought it was useful.

I took some rubberized wine corks and cut them down, then cut out the center.

Earlier I had epoxy some 3/4 threaded pvc unions to my old pull tab beer can tops.

I just screwed the union onto the wine corks.
