G'day Wayno,
Can you put up a photo of your wheels for me please?
Where did you get your centre caps, and what sort of wheel nuts did you use?
I have some widies I want to use but they have no provision for hubcaps.
I did think about Torana GTR trim rings, centres and nuts but am looking at all options. Huh
Cheers,
Gaz

jack,are the bullets long?
i have a set of bullets but are too long and look silly on the skinny fronts.
im after a bullet or domey sorta nuts that are relatively short.
have been everywhere in sydney lookin lookin,
everything i find i like is bloody metric
its hard to get anything i like in 7/16
have 3 sets of different sort of nuts
ended up putting original nuts back on
might just get these chromed
about 4 bucks each is what i was quoted
i think its too much
even thought of gettin some turned up outta stainless
which ever way i go its gonna be expensive
should just put the moon caps back on haha
they were only 20 bucks at a swap meet

not really; I'll measure them and get a pic for you tomorrow...  My front rims are only 5 x 14; they look OK on these narrow rims. I used them to replace chromed closed 'flat-top' nuts; they only stick out  about 1/2" more than the flat-top ones; maybe less, and they're more domed than pointy.
(but I usually run baby moons over them anyway...)
