    All:

    Can someone tell me if either of these caps should be mounted with trim rings?

    What model years do each cap belong on?


    Thanks guys:TU:

    Your pictures didn't work, but I can say that on the '70-72 poverty caps they did not use trim rings with them.

    Re: F4 Wheels

    Where did you get this info? I'm looking at my order form, and F4 simply says "Super Wide Oval/White Lettered tires G60-15." Thats very interesting, I guess I've never seen a hubcapped car with trim rings. I'd like to find whatever you are using to have a better guide to this stuff.

    BTW David, the cap on the right is what I normally see on the '70-72 GS/Skylark stuff. If you click the link in my signature, that is what my '71 Skylark has on it.:TU:

    Didn't Scott Miller buy a poverty cap car from Evil-Bay?

    Did he post pix?:Do No:

    From the picture I have, it looks like F4 has a chrome trim ring

    He did, and it had the ones on the left. I can't for the life of me remember it having (edit:) trim rings on it, but being a stage I would assume that it was ordered with 14 inch wheels.

    I wonder if the wheels would look better painted body color or black.

    I like the look of the trim rings with caps. The 70-72 caps will ultimately end up on my 73. Factory correct won't be important with this application.:Do No:
