Looking for small flat 'hub cap' for stock 15" wheels
« on: December 30, 2009, 09:13:21 pm »
I am looking for small flat 'hub cap' for my stock 15" wheels.It's just for the centre to replace stock center cover.
Have a pic of basically what i'm looking for,but hoping someone knows where I can get it.I've looked on ebay but can't seem to find it there.

Can't seem to find what I need. Want the 'baby moons' but looking at my stock wheels there are no 'nubs' on them. Looks like I need something close to 6 1/4" across to work. Anyone have these type on their stock 15" steel wheels?

With that type of rim you have to either go stock center bolt on or a full sized hubcap unless you get creative and drill holes and install clips.

Did you consider just getting some cooler wheels?

So you're just looking for the stock steel wheel then... I'd suggest some aftermarket ones or adapters. The stock offset looks pretty bad on these trucks just in case you didn't know. Maybe someone has pics to show you what I mean. The rally's usually fit and look a lot better than the steelies.

I have the rally's right now. I'm pretty sure they are
anyways. They are 15x8 truck rally's I beleive.
Would like to see some of my options for the center caps is all
