What Center caps for rally Wheels? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

chevykevy · 01-20-2007, 10:18 PM

I want to put some 6 lug Corvette rally wheels on my 68 . I recently put on a set of 6 lug discs I got from Mccaughy's and don't have disc front wheels yet. I talked to a vendor who sells rally wheels and he said that the center caps for the 67 Corvette that have the general motors and disc brake writnig along the edge, will not fit my front wheels because the bearing cap sticks out too far. I really like the wheels but don't like the Derby cap for the center cap. How about the police center caps? Anyone use anything other then the derby cap that works? Thanks

The police center caps are the same size as the disc cap iirc.

My 69 is a 5lug conversion, front disc, rear drum. Running 5 lug vette ralley's with derby caps. Tried the cop and disc caps, no go.

My buddy had disc brake caps on his 1971 2 wheel drive blazer, He drilled out the center.
