Factory P01 wheel covers and Steel wheels

My question is if I wanted to run factory p01 wheel covers with 15x8 or 15x10, how could this be accomplished? Any help with this would be much appreciated. Also which wheels specifically accept the p01 wheel covers ?

Re: Factory P01 wheel covers and Steel wheels

Welcome to the site, I have a 8 lug 3/4 ton with 15 inch chrome spoke wheels. they are ugly as can be. my Father in law had a set of wheel covers laying in his barn and gave them to me and I snapped them right onto that aftermarket wheel. They look great and unless you looked real hard and saw the chrome around the hubcap you would never know it wasn't just a stock wheel under that cover. I think they improved the looks a thousand times.

Buy some cheap white spoke wheels and pop them on. This Ochre truck had some kind of cheap 8" chrome wheels and we popped the wheel covers on. Actually, my trailr has white spokes with PO1s. Any steel wheel will work, except that funky crap that came out after hubcaps went away. With trucks, the 88-98 1500s had the last good steel wheels. Rim design was universal before they started messing with unlimited wheel sizes and designs

Re: Factory P01 wheel covers and Steel wheels

I have set of 15 x 7 rally wheels with the PO1's on my truck. I wanted 15 x 7's cause the 15 x 8's are little wide for the 235/75 15 tires on the truck. I got lucky as the guy I bought them from had had them powder coated white so they look pretty natural with the white band and PO1's.
