    Cop Car/Steel Wheel Center Caps

    Hello,

    I'm interested in putting some plain black steel wheels on my '89 MGM.

    I noticed some pics of some other cars that have these wheels with what look like Explorer/Ranger chrome center caps, but I'm not really sure what they are. I like the look of this and was wondering exactly what these center caps are and where to get them.

    Are they Explorer/Ranger center caps? If so, will they fit on all steel wheels or just certain ones?

    Where's the best place to get these center caps as far as a good price, and what should I expect to pay for a set? I suppose a junk yard is one option, or eBay. Just wanted to make sure I knew what to look for before I bought something.

    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    yea as far as i know they are at least Explorer center caps, cuz my explorer has them. using thos you will need a special lug like the one in the attachment. if your car does not have them already.

    as far as getting them try a junk yard like a u pull it one, where the price should not be more that 3 bux for one.

      the police cars and the rangers/explorers use the same center caps. you will need the shouldered lug nuts, they are something like $6 each, you will need 3 per wheel ($72 total for lug nuts)
