how about original 47 48 deluxe hubcaps?

 

My thoughts ^^^ exactly.. Cool coupe by the way...

 

Put a wanted ad on H.A.M.B. and Craig's list. That's how I found mine.

 

Thanks for the replys guys! I'll keep looking around!

Those are some beautiful wheelcovers and they would look sweet on your Chebbie.

 

These would look great. I think these are early 40s (42?)

 

I've heard of people attaching 15" diameter hubcaps onto 16" trim rings as kind of an adapter of sorts. Just a thought.

Lyons caps are very pretty but hard to come by in good shape, and that car looks too nice for a driver-quality set.

 

I used a set of adapters so that I could run Lyons on my 48. I can post a close up pic when I get home if you want.

 

Yes sir,,these would look great on your car. HRP

 

How about 16" Moon Racing disc--- the screw-on type, from Speedway.

 

Or......you should be able to find a set of the wide chrome trim rings that use the small
hubcap that you have. Ebay is usually a good source for such items. However, I just
checked the 'bay and not anything Chevy specific on just now (7-11-14). The wide rings
look generally like these.

 

..........Hey, to each his own but, I think these would be the worst choice for this car.

 

Lyons would be the natural choice. I just keep my eyes on the various classifieds and auction sites and have pieced together a few sets over the last couple years, just buying ones and twos at a time...

Another lower-cost, and easier to find, option would be 1941-49 Buick wheel covers, they were all 16"s until 1950.

 

Just some nice modern thin beauty rings would look kool.

 

Hi guys! Thanks for all reply's!! I got me a set of trim rings this weekend! I thought i try out to put in a 15"
