    Anybody run Gennie or smoothie wheels without hubcaps?

    saw that rallyamerica makes a cover for the smoothies that covers the multibolt pattern... but havent seen them on any rides?

    I like the Gennie wheels.. but not a big hubcap fan... and wonder what they look like under the cap.

    Anyone got any pics?

    Hey Josh... I have the smoothies from RallyAmerica, and also have the smooth cover that covers the multi pattern... I just run the cone caps instead...

    These are the covers I was hoping to see on some smoothies.

    run these with bullet lug nuts and push through cone.

    its pretty neat.. although after seeing the gennie wheels... I am going to have go get me some... the look alot like the original wheels that came on it in 65... closer anyway than the smoothie or the oem. if I remember correctly in 65 the trucks had a center section that looked alot like that.. with it raised and smooth to the center, then was inset for the lugs. not the flat with bump around the middle.
