Posted June 4, 200717 yr comment_211241 Has anyone ever seen center caps such as these? They came with the wheels (photo) on my '71 Z when I bought it. Any idea what they might be? My appraiser suggest American Racing but wasn't sure. I haven't pulled the wheels off yet to check their brand (being a little lazy I guess). Any thoughts are appreciated.

June 4, 200717 yr comment_211256 The wheels remind me of Western or Superior. Not sure without more data. The three-bar spinners are third party - they did not come with the wheels originally, as they were for "off road use only" due to DOT regulations. As such, the emblem on the spinners are a red herring, at best.

June 4, 200717 yr comment_211287 Don't be surprised if you don't find much - a lot of those old wheels weren't really marked on the back. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/24492-mystery-center-caps/#findComment-211287 Share on other sites More sharing options...
