WHAT DO YOU NEED TO KNOW TO PURCHASE A HUBCAP?

You may think it's simple to call and get a hubcap for your car-or even a center cap. Well if you have the right info handy-it can be a breeze. You would be surprised at how many different centers or hubcaps for ONE YEAR MAKE AND MODEL. Believe me.....shocked!
1) Tire or wheel size...this can be found on the outside edge of the tire itself. 14", 15" and so on.
2) The year, make and model of your car. (example: 1994 Buick Le sabre)
3) Do you have steel, chrome or aluminum wheels on your vehicle. This will help in #4
4) Do you need a full hubcap(one that covers the whole wheel(which would be a steel wheel) or do you need a center cap for your wheel(usually aluminum/alloy/chrome). Once in a while you will find a basic steel wheel with a center cap.
5) If all else fails you can send us a picture to our email address:

I do want to point out that please don't be too sticker shocked when we tell you the price of the cap. Prices depend vary widely--depending on the type of cap and the condition it is in. Nicer would be higher priced opposed to a more scratched up cap being cheaper. Now a days the rougher ones usually blend in with the others on your vehicle already.

We do offer a wide variety of AFTERMARKET hubcaps. These are not the cheapo caps you find in your average dept. store. You all know the ones....cheapo plastic clips on them that fall off pretty much after you drive down the road or hit a pebble in the road.
We offer sturdy plastic caps that have a metal ring retention clip with sharp "teeth" on them. They DIG into the wheel and fit the way hubcap should. These can replace most any full size hubcap ranging in different sizes for your wheel. Steel wheel that is.
