    I have a pair of Wheelsmith rims on my '47 Ford rear end. They are the Darn universal fit pattern. I need to know WHAT baby moon hub cap will fit since they only have INSIDE nubs AND the old banjo axles stick out a bit too much for reg moons.?

    You have to use the caps that Wheelsmith sells. I've had their wheels on a bunch of cars and nothing fits but the ones they sell.

    Will they clear the end of the axle and what about the inside diameter where the nubs are on Wheelsmiths?
