Chrome trim ring/center cap install!!
Installed my Set of Chrome Trim Rings and Center Caps this morning and WHAT A DIFFERENCE!
Took my Truck to the "Next Level". Talk about Instant Gratification. I've posted a couple of pictures here and made a Photo Gallery on my Website. Go to: http://home.pon.net/wwotr/towing.htm Scroll Down to the Chrome Trim Ring/Center Cap Section. Roger "RATIKLE"

Re: Chrome trim ring/center cap install!!
Hey WWOTR You're right. Those wheels set off the whole truck. I'd like to do something similar to mine someday. I'm sick of my home-painted "Spoker" wheels with the cheap chrome hubs.

Re: Chrome trim ring/center cap install!!
You know, I think I paid about $140.00 with shipping for all 4 Rings/Centercaps. When one of the Center Caps "Tangs" busted, they sent me a new one....No Charge!
