16.5x12 Bart Supertrucker stock Chevy Hubcap

Anyone think this would be a cool idea? Was thinking about modifying the bart rim to accept the stock 3/4 ton hubcaps. IMO it looks bada** but there are a lot of 73-87 guys going new school with their rim/tire combo's these days. Lets hear some opinions.

I like it. I personally would like a set of 20" white steel rims with factory center caps.

I think it's a cool idea. It looks great with the hub recessed inside like that. I say go for it.

Re: 16.5x12 Bart Supertrucker stock Chevy Hubcap

what i was thinking to get the bart to accept the cap would be some kind of band around the inner part of the rim roughly the same size as the hub cap. Tack it into the bart but then id have to figure out a way so the hubcap actually snaps in like a regular stock wheel
