Trim Rings and Bullet Lug Nuts - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm looking for some factory style trim/beauty rings for my 52' Chevy (stock steel wheels) and some Bullet style lugs. Anyone have any suggestions? I found some nice sets on hubcapmike.com. Anyone ever order from them?

I looked through dozens of sets yesterday at the Firebird raceway annual swap meet. There was more stuff there then in the past years, I think the economy has lots of stuff coming out of attics and barns around here. I ended up getting a set that fit my 74 steel wheels in very good driver condition for $10. Most, except for late 60's ralley stuff, were priced in the $3-5 each range. I would suggest tracking down some swap meets in your area and go to them with some good measurements. I found most sellers did not know what they had.
