    I think it's just fine with hub caps but if it were me I'd use different ones. Just one man's opinion. :)

    Spider caps and beauty rings would look sweet.

    I like it better with the 'caps, but I am not sold on that particular 'cap. Make sense? I would try a different style.

    With caps. It looks FINISHED with them, looks ratty without. Goes for most cars in my opinion.

    Any hub caps are better than a wheel made for caps that doesn't have them... IMHO

    With, either those or something else. It's a Chrysler sedan, not a Model A hot rod. Wire wheel covers ('50s ones, not new junk) would look pretty sweet.

    Some body styles can get away with no caps, right now IMHO that car needs caps. Maybe if the wheels were a different color? Blackwall tires?
     
  13. Olds fiestas or Dodge Lancers would help make not look so stock, just sayin'.

    A set of the ripple hub caps would look pretty fantastic actually.

    Do one side with and one side without:rolleyes: Not really... but I like that you can change it up once in a while. To me, with looks finished but without gives your car at***ude. I guess it just depends on your mood or personality... robber

    With. What's with all the gangsta ****? I thought they all wanted giant shiny rims or teeny little wire wheels, not bare steel wheels...
     
  30. Anything to make it not look like a stock, boring, old Mopar 4 door that my dad would of driven in the fifties. Just this a grandpa's thoughts.
