Pizza pans for my VX

Picked up a few 14" pizza pans for the 13" wheels on my VX (somehow, it's a perfect fit... go figure.)

I was looking at different ways to mount them, and then thought to remove the center caps from my aftermarket wheels. They're held on by a single bolt, and I used that to attach the pans.

My main concern is that they are attached at only one point, which is slightly off-center. I can snug them down tight enough that I can't move them by hand. I also have some industrial strength Velcro I can add opposite the bolt to mitigate any rotational forces (the stuff is seriously strong.)

What do you guys think? I plan to test this at low speeds tomorrow, but do you think it definitely needs another attachment point?

These took all of 1 minute to install.

I added the nylon spacer so I could snug down the bolt without deforming the pan.
