    Turbine wheels

    My 87 currently has steelies but Im buying turbines to replace them because they make my car look like crap. I already have two and will be getting two more when I find them for a decent price. What I want to know is, is there a bracket that helps hold the center caps in place?

    No bracket. There are 3 pegs in the wheel that hold the center cap on.
    You can see them in the pic below:

      They POP on over those pegs and stay in place almost too well at times. Was always fun attempting to remove them.

        I figured as much but I saw a bracket on ebay as well listed for the same vehicle and got curious.

        Well at least it wont come flying off lol. Thanks guys.

          Must be the bracket for steel wheels to retain the fake wire wheel hubcaps.
