New caps

I bought these hubcaps at a swap meet over the weekend for $10. I have been tossing it around if I would like a set over the plain wheels. It gives it a new look though. I like them pretty good so far. Sorry for the crappy pic.

Re: New caps

Personally, I dig that truck with or without the caps.
You spent money so I'd roll with them...I hate to waste bread.
Just my 2 cents.

Re: New caps

I been wanting to pull the trigger and buy a new set. The ones I got are not perfect but neither is the truck and for $10 I thought what the hell.

Re: New caps

I like the caps - have you checked the price on a new set lately? $200+!

Good find.

Re: New caps

I think they look good, roll with 'em. So what if they're banged up, kinda suits the truck.

Re: New caps

Better then looking at lug nuts and wheel bearing dust caps. I want to get a set of wheels on my truck so I can run hub caps, but I want a deep dish rim.
