16.5 wheels.......beauty rings?!!

hey gang....

my 72 burb C20 still has the stock 16.5" wheels and hub caps. i want to keep them for that authentic look but was thinking a set of beauty rings would really dress it up and hide any unsightly rust. anyone know of a company that makes rings for our vintage 3/4 and 1 ton wheels or another make/model of truck that came with rings?!!

You mean like this? They don't make them that I know. Everyone I have tried to make fit...won't. There seems to be too much angle on that shoulder for the fingers to bite into. If you find some let me know!
