I'll give you $10.00 each for those hubcaps. (laughing because I know they are worth more than that...not because I think they are ugly or anything )

Re: Whose on Steelies? Post 'em up!
just put new shoes on yesterday, and found some caps and rings that cleaned up real nice for my driver. Needed a lot of degreaser on the wheels, and a little chrome polish on the caps and rings. New lug nuts too.
By the way did you know with enough scrubbing you can get the matte finish off the flat part of these hub caps? Probably not the repop plastic ones, but the metal originals will polish up nice with some muscle and chrome polish. |

Re: Whose on Steelies? Post 'em up!
Just got these blasted and painted, got a real nice set of the later style hubcaps and will (hopefully) soon be getting a set of 235/85/16s mounted on them

Re: Whose on Steelies? Post 'em up!
It's funny now that most vehicles come with styled alloy wheels people are considering rallye wheels steelies. HUbcaps are a thing of the past and the only wheel covers come on el cheapo models and they are plastic crap. Wheels used to be so simple.
