alright the general theme for my truck is to keep it stock as possible. granted im doing a 350 and air-ride, i want everything else as original as possible.

i have these wheels and hubcaps. 14" stock wheels.

Image

i am wanting to know if these hubcaps can fit a modern 15" wheel? i am converting the truck to 5 lug with s10 stuff. i want to make it look old school.

i just got distracted. dont know if any of this makes sense.

can i get these hubcaps pictured to fit a larger diameter steel wheel? or does anyone know of any hubcaps that closely resemble the stock luv caps?

I saw an older full size Chevy the other day that had basically the same hub caps, but the wheels where at least 15s. Maybe track down a set of those if these don't work?

actually forgot to post this up. i picked up a bunch of s10 stuff for when i swap everything out. got some 14" rally wheels from an s10 and my caps fit. so pretty much they will fit any 14" steel wheel from what ive tested them on.

ill get pictures next time i think about it
