I recently brought some chrome hubcaps off a TMF member. I got some clubby ones and roundnose ones. I'm currently torn between all of the choices. Which do you think look best?
No Cap-
Standard Cap-
Clubby Cap-
Hubcaps Or No Hubcaps? That's The Question....

I voted for standard hub caps. No caps looks unfinished and the Clubby I think would only look right on a Clubby.

no caps don't look right, either of the caps look good, why not have 2 of one type on one side and the other type on the other 
I think the chrome looks a bit crap really, OEW would look better imo

I think if the roundnose hubcaps were polished up they would look really good. Clubby should stay on Clubby but thats me being a clubby owner though.

Its a tough call. I didn't vote purely for the fact I would want to vote for the roundnose hub caps and no hubcaps which isn't allowed. Personally I would only put clubman hubcaps on a clubby. For earlier mini's like mk1 and mk2 id proably stick with the standard hubcaps, however I think on later minis it is possible they can pull off no hubcaps just steelies on their own and still look good. just my 2 pence.
