    I picked up these wheels at Sumter County Swap last week-end. A local guy bought a high end 32 highboy Roadster with these wheels/tires and he decided to add fenders. This combo didn't work for him so I grabbed them for my 29Ford RPU project. The plastic caps are Weld Racing but they look like they were original. I know Weld made star wires but these don't look like them. I love the wheels but the caps look cheesy. Anybody know who made these wheels? May be the manufacturer has a better looking cap.

    Would a Skylark wire wheel cap fit in there?
