CHROME TRIM RINGS and CENTER CAPS - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

It looks as though my 72 GMC Fleetside Shortbed, has Rally Wheels.
http://home.pon.net/wwotr/photogal/dsc00014.htm

When looking for the Chrome Trim Rings I see there are 4 or 5 Different Widths that are avaliable in Chrome Plastic or Chromed Steel.
How do I know which one will fit mine.
I'm in a Rural Mountain Community, so its not like I can run down to the local parts store to see what fits.
I was at this site :
http://www.jcwhitney.com/Trim-Rings-...3841_10101.jcw

And they have 5 Different types of Trim rings (widths for a 15" wheel!

Also does anyone know where I can pict up those Chrome Center Caps that acsentuate the Chrome Trim Ring, and are there different size (for a 15" wheel) for that.

Lastly, has anyone maybe have a set of (4) that they're not using and want to sell?

http://www.earlywheel.com/rallywheels.html they have wheels,all types of caps and trim rings.

jbristo67 · 04-18-2009, 05:01 PM

They all fit. I have a set of the wide ones that are in really good shape and 2 decent centers. Let me know if you need them

Sinister · 04-18-2009, 05:23 PM

I got my stainless trim rings from Hubcap Mike's.

wwotr · 04-18-2009, 10:10 PM

So if I'm hearing correctly, ANY of the 15: Trim Rings will fit a 15" Rally Wheel,it's just the preference of how "wide" a Trim Ring I want...........correct?
As far as the Center Caps, they're pretty much universal?
I've enclosed a picture from the Internet of pretty much EXACTLY the end result I'm trying to achieve.

Those are the rings I have

wwotr · 04-19-2009, 05:42 AM

JBRISTO67,
Is that a set of (2) rings or (4)?
Are they the ABS Chrome Plastic or Steel Rings?
Whats the width?

Roger

Bugsy_malonn · 04-19-2009, 06:46 AM

GO with steel the plastic is junk and the steel ones last for ever

Tx Firefighter · 04-19-2009, 06:58 AM

Those rings on the maroon truck look like the 3 inch deep rings to me. Like was said above, be sure and seek out steel rings and not plastic. Factory GM rings were stainless steel and are well worth the premium price. They look great and last near forever.

They are steel. I will get out to measure them I think they are 3 I have all 4. 3 are near perfect 1 has a small ding

I hate to hijack this post but I would be interested in what center caps you went with. Im trying to find caps to fit my rallies and the ones I ordered are way to small. Mine say "Power Disk Brake" on them.

nac593 · 04-21-2009, 08:24 AM

How do the rings install? Can you put them on after the tire is mounted?

65ChevelleSS · 04-21-2009, 08:50 AM

Yes, they just push on. They look like the old Corvette/Camaro rally caps. I tried those but they are to small and not deep enough.

65ChevelleSS · 04-22-2009, 07:50 AM

anyone?
