Center caps, yes/no?

[lone-wolf]

I was going to sell the rims and keep the tires(package deal) but figured everything is already together might as well keep them as is and throw them on.
The question though, should I put any center caps on? I got some top hat style ones that came with it, but they'll only go on the rear because of the locking hubs and I think they won't look good. Is there any alternative for these american racing rims? Or do they look alright as is.

I prefer center caps, and American Racing does make an open hub cap. Just measure the center bore and there are a lot of options out there if you want a different style.

Base '70 3/4 ton 318 4spd radio delete. Grandpa bought it brand new off the lot.

Good catch, at first I was like "surely he didn't think my truck was a dodge " until I looked at the pic again.

I'm running M/T classic IIs that are similar to your wheels on my '97,with the factory caps that came on the stock deer hoof wheels. They look great.

I don't remember my factory center caps fitting correctly, I'll have to double check.

my uncle has a '86 D100 318 with the auto on the dash... boy that truck would fly... until a
cavilere decided he wanted to poke his nose out at the wrong spot. uncle was doing about 65-70 and the cavi thought it would be a good idea not to stop...


..... well... the core support is touching the block, ruined the cab, and the cavi's motor was about 15' feet away from the rest of the car... all i gotta say that was a helluva ride. he paid 250 bucks for the truck in '80, and got 8300 from insurance, and bought it back for 60. now its sitting in his lean-too waiting for a rear-ended truck w/o a title.

sorry bout' the thread jack, and center caps FTW
