So are they 15" and would they fit a 1950 Ford wheel? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

15" yes
fit you wheels no
It takes some work but its well worth it. Theres a couple ways to do it. One way is to attach a trim ring and the other involves attaching a dog dish or moon cap.

Brush, I did a post a while ago on how to modify sombreros.
Look for it on a search, it was called Sombrero quick tech.
I'd post the link but I'm an idiot. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
