Are there any small hubcaps that will fit a 16" one ton wheel.
I just want something to cover the hub. I would like to put stainless nut covers on the lug nuts.
Thank you....

One more question.
What "washer" is involved?
The pictures are too small to see any details.

Hi

The washer attached to the Alcoa nut has a small chamfer on the bottom. The
covers I cut are sized to fit into the chamfer without holding the nut away
from the wheel.

If you click on the pictures you will see a larger image, you can't copy
them so let me know if you want a copy.

Dave

I see it now.
When I clicked on it before, it didn't get any bigger.
I'm using steel wheels, going from 16.5" to 16.
Thanks again for the information.

I believe the wheels Dave has asked the question about a suggestion for
achieving nice looking hubcaps are steel 16" replacements for the 16.5
(correct me if I am wrong ) so therefore the suggested options that I have
been reading here are for the aluminium wheels. If that is not the case then
who has a suggestion for a good looking cap for the steel wheels or what
caps have been used and from exactly which vehicle.

Jim,
Don't those SS center caps fit the steel 16.5 wheels too? I saw a
set in with those A. Eagles you shipped to Stan Relf.

JimK;
Can you send a picture of these hubcaps? I looked at your website but couldn't tell which ones they were. The wheels I have came with a heavy ring for the tapered bottom nuts.
