I'm sure this may have been covered before, and from what i know a Japanese mini retailer makes these, however has anyone successfully managed to retrofit the 10" hubcaps to their 12" steel wheels?

 

Any info appreciated. if anyone has a beaten up cap i'd also be happy to buy it to try out a few experiments.

 

Many thanks, Yams

If you mean the chrome ones then there is a Mayfair near me with 12" steels with those hubcaps on. Driven by a little old lady

12" hillman imp steelies fit a mini and take hubcaps, albeit not mini ones but there is a few different hillman style ones.

Yeah I found this out a few months ago. However finding a set of imp steels is somewhat difficult now. Perhaps I was looking in the wrong places but ive committed to use mini 12" steels now.

True. Im lucky and have a set of 12" imp steelies with the hub caps and inner trim which goes in before the hub cap.
