Re: 15x7 6 Lug Rally Caps?

These are so rare I forgot finding out about them back when this thread was posted.

Those '88 style caps are held on at the lug nut. They are duplex, which is a lug nut that threads on the stud to hold the wheel on, as usual, and have external threads below the hex that plastic fake lug nuts thread on to hold the cap on. The '88-ups have metric studs/lugs, so you need what they call conversion duplexes, which have the proper external thread for the cap and SAE threads for the stud. Other than being more shallow, I just think they look better. Nice and clean looking all smooth instead of all notched up and chunky looking. Afterall, they were made for a 4wd with wide wheels and beefier tires
