    Can someone help out with a measurement on these caps on the diameter in this red area?

    Most caps have a known outer diameter, 10.25" I believe. Depending on how accurate you want to be, just scale it from the picture.

    According to my calibrated eyeball the distance across the red portion of my hubcap is 4.350". Hope this helps! Mark

    Thank you for the confirmation. Being cheap and not immediately needed. I'm looking for a very clean to nos set. But reminder I'm cheap:confused: I seen a few sets on eBay and the FB already. Gonna hit swaps too.
