Looks just like my 2/4 drop, on the original poster's truck. I'm running the same wheels, too. Got 245-60's up front and 275-60's out back. I'm running the hod rod trim rings, which leave a painted lip between the trim ring and the tire, plus the police caps. If you have swapped to disc brakes, as I have, you may find that the grease cap on the front hub is easily contacted by the smooth police cap.....so, I'm gonna go with the '67 disc brake style of cap. I wish I had known it could be an issue, but I didn't, so gotta spend another $140+ with Summit. But, the free shipping is good, huh?

im still drums all around... yeah Summit is great, i was first going to order straight from wheel vintiques and it came out to $441 to the door, went online to summit and it came out to $220 and they were on my door step in 2 days..lol

hey Don. Welcome back. Could you not use some thin spacers to move the wheel out enough to make the police cap clear the dust cap? I have discs on mine and would want to use the police cap like you guys.

Do you know the inside diameter of your caps? I just bought these off of Ebay and thet did not fit my 6 lug ralleys? Mine take the same as as the original 14 & 15" car ralleys. The guy told me sorry about my luck even though he advertised them to fit. Now he says there for the chrome ones??? Oh Well I guess I'll put dog food in them and feed my dogs...

I had these caps on a front disc setup and there was NO interference.

remember, these caps were use on 68-69 police Impalas, Biscaynes. they had all the "new" safety devices on them like disc brakes. so I believe they should fit most Corvette rallyes. what the difference may be is that the truck rotor has a longer nose???

what part do you want me to measure, the inside lip to lip?

chevys2die4 · 03-31-2008, 04:32 AM

Yes, or the opening of the wheel dia. that accepts the cap?

The Caps I bought are 7 1/2" dia and I need 7" Dia!

The inside lip of the caps is 6 1/2"
