Has anyone run a set of these before? I'm thinking they could look pretty sweet without the dog dish hubcaps. I've looked at Aero, Bassett, etc., but these are pretty cool. They don't have tons of sizes, but I'm a simple, 15" type of guy at least for now.

Look at my 69 rebel wagon sst in the for sale threads now. They totally make the car! A nice set of stainless lug nuts is all it takes to nail the old school hot rod look.

Nashes, AMCS, Ramblers and Jeeps. Even a few Fords, Mopars, and GM!

Thanks for the response. Very nice! Are those chrome beauty rings on them? Also what size tires are on those 15x8 rims?

When the ex-police then ex-taxi cabs (Diplomats) were common in the junkyards a few years ago I got a couple of sets of those wheels and actually considered saving a set from my cars, but the Mopar guys offered good prices for them so away they went. Joe

I have a pair of these on the back of my Spirit right now.
No hub caps, painted semi-flat black, chrome lug nuts. They look good. However...I felt they would not be a good fit for the front. (Although I have been known to be mistaken from time to time) g-man

The Mexico style wheels are not the same as the Mopar police wheels
