Moto Metals and center caps

so the other day i go outside and notice my center cap is missing so i go and check the other 3 and another one falls off i mean falls right off. somewhere along the line, the tension spring was missing of the wire clips. anyone else have this problem? or know where i can buy one of these things? i emailed the compnay i bought them from and they told me the manufacturer recommends to use silicone for an added precaution. weird, for 275 a rim you wouldn't think this would be an issue.

My Eagle's are the same way. I used a dab of silicone on each tab to "glue" them in place because I don't trust the spring loaded tabs.

same thing happened with my old rims. i lost one of them while driving, then later i got stuck in a mud hole and when i got pulled out two more were missing. just about the only place i've seen to buy them was on ebay, in sets of 4.
