need info on hubcaps
ok guys maybe somebody can help me out here, i bought me some hubcaps on ebay a few days ago. i got a heck of a deal on them so i couldnt pass em up. i was gonna use em on my truck. problem is that when they got here they wouldnt fit. my mistake for not asking for more pics. the only pic i could see was of the front of the caps and not the rear. come to find out they wont fit my steelies. anybody know what these caps will fit so maybe i can sale them and get my money back atleast.

Re: need info on hubcaps
They look like they might be C20 or larger truck caps of some sort, or for older wheels that use spring clips to hold the cap on. Stock C10 hubcaps (non spring clip) measure 10 1/8" on the inside diameter of the caps. Those appear to have a smaller opening. There's a chart on here somewhere that list the different ID's and what they fit.

Re: need info on hubcaps
8 7/8" inner diameter? Looks like a cap for 67 up 3/4 ton and 1 ton 17.5" wheel with clips. But don't quote me on that. I'm no where near my books.
