I need some rallye wheel beauty rings!!!!!!!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I want to get some new beauty rings for some 6 lug rally wheels and I want them as wide as possable.

I have heard that GM used to sell some that were like over 3 inch deep (somewhere around 4 inch).

Also I need some nice center caps .....
Does anyone know of any that look good that will fit that are not like the stock type???

If so please post me some pics of this stuff and where to get it.
So far I have only found 2 inch and 3 inch wide rings and center caps that look like the 4x4 style.

Thanks,
Bobby.

I bought some deep style trim rings at a local swap meet last month. Roger's Wheels & tires is the name on his card. I measured the trim rings and they measure out deeper than 3'', but not quite 4''. He is located in Winston-Salem ( I don't know if that is close to you) I have his number if you want it. I'll email you with the number.

check out these guys.
They have other auctions on trim rings.
I appears that they are reproduction parts.

Here is a pic of the 4x4 caps with convex spot mirrors glued to them. These are dirty, but the mirrors fit perfect, and make the whole cap appear chrome. Just an idea for you.
