I have 20x8.5 and mine sit flush with the rims, but my friends 20x10 stick out pretty far like your talking about. Look at the user Dodge Trucker. He has a dakota on here and He replaced his center caps and they look pretty good

Evo Mega and someone else cut them down. Much better IMO. RH trust me on this one they look good straight on but from an angle with the 18's they stick out way too far and catch rocks like a ****.

Unscrew the points where the center cap attaches to the middle of the rim and cut those down. They're plastic so you shouldn't have too much trouble cutting them.
