I have those trim rings on my Model A Hot Rod, it has repro Chevy Rally wheels. They are called, apropriatedly enough, Hot Rod Trim rings. I bought mine many years ago from Wheel Vintiques, here is a link to their web page for them http://wheelvintiques.myshopify.com/...-rod-trim-ring

And here’s a couple of pictures of the original cars they came from:
