Spinners...Where Are They?
Anyone know where a guy could find a set of spinners and center caps? I would really to get the type of center cap that has a bolt pattern on it and goes behind the wheel. Know what I am talking about? I had a set of those on my S-10 Blazer when I was in high school 10 years ago. I think they would look great with spinners painted the same color as my truck. So the search is on.

Re: Spinners...Where Are They?
I looked but I couldn't find any. I wonder if they even have those for the bolt pattern I need.

Re: Spinners...Where Are They?
If your talking the "old school" style spinner center caps, I believe moon still has them. If your talking the Bling style, I haven't got a clue.

Re: Spinners...Where Are They?
Tire dealers can order them and I have also seen them in pep boys. They fit the gm rally center caps.

Re: Spinners...Where Are They?
I am talking about the old style. I don't care for those newer ones where the whole center of the wheel spins. I have some like bowtieman that I am gonna paint the same color as my truck and put a decal in the center but I need the center caps. Sorry for the confusion. Anyonw know where I can find the OLD STYLE spinner center caps.

Re: Spinners...Where Are They?
BowtieMan showed spinners,that`s what they are.They came on cars in the 60s.They are similated spindle-mount knock-offs as found on true spoke sports wheels in place of lug nutsThey became available to add to wheels,hubcaps,and center caps as an accessory.They were outlawed on new cars in`68 along with the introduction of padded dashes/horn caps,side markers,and head rests.They had 2 or 3 prongs.There are these other ridiculous gimmick oversizes wheels that came out lately with a seperate center section that does it`s own thing.These are also called spinners since those who like them know so little about vehicles that they didn`t realize there is already an accessory by that name.That,and they are too dumb to create their own name.

Re: Spinners...Where Are They?
Those are some good samples of spinners at Summit. The weld ones are nice but a bit pricey. I have a set I bought 6 yrs ago to go on my American Outlaws. If memory is right they were about $55 for the set. The chrome hub mounts on the lugs behind the wheel and the spinner mounts on a stud to the hub. Set screw locks em down. Very much like the one pictured above.

Re: Spinners...Where Are They?
I've got a set for sale. I believe they are made by Weld. The consist of 3 pieces each. I'll take $250 + shipping. They are new, but need a good cleaning.
