My car has done well over 50k without hub caps, and only now has a bearing failed
I think this makes them optional

If they are the original bearings (and assuming the caps were lost during disc replacement). You know the car's history though.Originally Posted by UKKid35
But desirable - are they obtainable new?

Yes, for a not unreasonable £2.50 (plus p&p)

Cheers - but my missing two turned up the following day.
Definitely they should be fitted - a warm hub will pull in moisture when a puddle is encountered (as the hub cools).
