Re:
I don't think it's that easy Kev as the centre bolt is protruding further than the circle in the hub as per one of the photos you posted previously.
The nice centre hub caps on eBay are meant to attach to the centre hole of the alloy wheels, not the actual hub.

And that is what Ian wants ... to cover the centre hole in his steel rims instead of having the nut exposed through it.

Re:
Am pretty sure the hole in the steel rims is wider than the centre hub circle, so the standard alloy centre caps won't fit and the centre hub nut would still prevent them from being attached.

Re:
Hi Ian,
Not sure if they will fit, but you can get dust caps like the ones you find on trailers from any auto shop.
By memory I think they are a 48 or 49mm diameter.
they are only cheap so if they don't fit, its no great loss.

Re:
only thing i can suggest is you go to ford and get some of their dust caps for their steel wheels. been around for ages and are still fitted to the current FG utes with 16" steelies. yes they should fit as both cars PCD is 5/114.3.
sorry about the bad pic i couldnt find another better

Re:
Also some of the falcon ones are actually small hubcaps that go to the outside of the wheel nut circumference.
Actually, I think most of them are like that.

Re:
thats is correct Tony, they are secured by the wheel nuts also which makes them very hard to pinch
