I would check on e-bay for a couple of 54 or 55 olds hubcaps, they will match your front caps but not have the spinner bars. Or may be a fellow H.A.M.B.er has a set that they would sale.
If anybody is interested in these GM trim rings the part number is 15545387. Maybe they are still available still from te dealership? Doc
I bought some alloys and now going to painted steelies with trim rings and spider centres or OEM hubcaps.
I genrally like to agree with HRP even if I dont say it on here but Im gonna hafta disagree on this one about the spun disc," I dont like em". Chrome full moons are OK but I hate spun disk on anything other than a race car, like a salt flats car and even then I wouldnt say I really like em but just see them as a necessary part of the car. If I were involved in a time that those were more accepted and had memories where they were more commonly used on street cars then maybe I would like em more, just because, but as it stands I think just plain steel wheels,orig hub caps, etc.etc.etc. would look better. I hope the OP got his problem figured out by now as this thread was started back in march.
Funny, the first car that comes to mind when I think of Moon discs is a custom Merc. Heart Like a Wheel movie car. Think it looks pretty slick myself. Really need to be screw ons with a bit of painted edge showing on skinny wheels and bias plys to look right. Tubes are a must.
Slopok Wow, It's amazing how much the disks and blackwalls change the looks of that car and for the better.
Sorry F-one, gotta disagree. The Caddie caps and skirts look awesome, followed by the reds and wide whites...
LOL if I could fit regular hubcaps on my rims, I wouldn't be asking between trim rings and screw on moons... It's primitive technology that is further compromised in the name of vanity.- HAMBer Cleatus Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
