thats the same wheel as discussed above and I bet the wheel he already has looked at. he could add the clips, but the nubs would stick out, the clip on hubcap is only 7.5" if I remember. the nubs are 10"

By the way, 15x7 5 on 4 3/4 are almost impossible to find on impalas and other big bodies. I only found one set in about a year of scouring yards, and I even used the search at car-part.com I found mine on an 87 olds 98, I looked at about 10 that only had 15x6. buying them from wheel vintiques would have saved a lot of time.
