    so ive decided to run 16 inch factory style steel wheels on my 59 f100 4x4. im wondering if anybody knows where i could get some with the nubs for innie hub caps. Im looking for them in 5x5.5 lug pattern. is there any companies making these wheels or is this gunna be a salvage only item only? and if so anybody got any laying around?

    You'll find the 16" 5x5.5 bc inney nub wheels you decsribe easy enough but will they fit over the larger hub on you 4x4?

    International scout wheels are cool. 15x8, fit the early caps, 5on 5.5 and will probably fit over the hubs.

    I had a 59 F-100 4x4 30 years ago, The factory wheel was a 16x5 5x5.5 with inny caps. The front 4x4 snouts are so large you will need 4x4 caps.

    well the caps are going to be reworked plain aftermarket ones with holes added in the front ones to accommodate the hubs.

    Ford 1/2 ton pickup through 1956. Later went to outside nubs.

    Old Jeep caps are outside nubs or none at all.
