Mine are 10.125" and they are a tight tight fit. You prob want one size bigger like 10.250" caps.

Well,10 3/16" is 1/16" bigger than 10 1/8" (10.125"),so that's the one you want. There aren't but a couple sizes of hubcaps for US-made cars and 1/2t trucks. Chrysler broke the standard by using that little diameter and everyone else used the bigger. Some 4-lugs cars like Corvairs used a smaller size,too. Then 3/4ts all used the same third size that was larger.

Re: Size Baby Moon Center caps for stock wheels 6 Lugs?
they are a little hard to get on the first time and do fit tight, there is an art to installing them. do not hit the middle or down the sides, put them on so that only one wheel bump is showing and bump it down and to the side hitting just the outside lip when installing...seen a lot of bent ones...hope this is clear as mud....

Re: Size Baby Moon Center caps for stock wheels 6 Lugs?
Thank you very much to all of you for your comments. My idea is to put the moon center caps and ring trim 2 ". Now understand that the most convenient size is 10 "3/16.This picture is very nice.
