Just be careful when you buy chrome wheel nuts, when I bought mine I developed a problem of my nuts coming lose while driving and getting the wobbles
.
With a bit of detective work I found out that I could screw the nuts all the way on with my fingers and then they still had side to side play
, not good, so test them out before buying them

By the way, the car looks great, are they flappers?

Prefer the all black look sets off the whitewalls and green paint nicely!

Basically a chrome cap that goes in the centre of the rim, like I'm running...

Will wait and see what these caps look like
then maybe look at a set of trims
Thanx Ben, I agree wheels can make or break a project
I guess thats one good thing about sticking with the steelies
you can alternate between different combinations
caps, trims, go domes. discs etc
