Looking to get these, anyone used stock looking hubcaps on these wheels?

Stock caps only work on 15” stock wheels. They use the outer ring to attach.

Looks great thank you! Like the color too. The pic looks like you have caps on the rear tires. What kind are those?

Nice combo all around! Thanks for sharing

Very nice!

Can you tell me the tire size?

And confirm that's a 16" wheel? 7" wide?

Lastly, what was determined to be the ideal backspacing with 16 x 7 wheel? I am looking at 17" x 7 wheel and am curious what type of backspace I should plan for?

Thanks

“...What backspacing?..."
“...Won't be able to use these. 4" backspace has appeared not to be enough with the 7" wheel width...."
Like every tire Q: "it depends". (cant give 1 answr for 1 guy or 1 answr for every guy)
How ‘puffy' do U run ur tire, U like a big “R” value (space from tire tread to bead), got discs or drums, who’s/which? Let's
keep lookin and sizing...
