I am tired of breaking the plastic fake nuts on our wheels, and I think they look c@#ppy anyway. I want to do something like these...
FOT had the fronts in stock, but no brackets (the parts guys didn't even know there were supposed to be brackets, so I guess they don't sell many :o ) and the price seemed over the top.
Anybody have a better source for these or the equivalent?

If you bought them at FOT, that would be well over a coach buck! ::) I found that website before, Unfortunately they only have orders by phone or form that you fill out and fax. I was hoping to be able to just order them on the Internet. Maybe I'll give them a call tomorrow...

Got to see these covers in person- much better than any pictures! and they are permanently polished and so much easier to keep wheels looking sparkingly clean!

Somebody liked my passenger rear Alcoa cover more than I did, apparently, and stole all the nuts, all the backing pieces along with the cover. I thought they only put these things on nice coaches, so there is at least one nice coach out there with a thief driving it.
I bought the nuts and mounts from ebay and the cover itself from a trucking outfit I found online. It was still around $75, IIRC.

We have these on our coach and I like them for reasons stated above - mainly, easy to clean and I like the simple look. I had no idea they were so expensive until Rudy Leggett saw mine and priced them for his. I attached a couple of photos for those of you who are interested in seeing them on the coach.

I ordered a set of these from T Kane Enterprises by phone today. Very small operation, call was answered by a man who said I'll give you to my wife when I wanted to order the covers. They should be here before the first... Will post details when I put them on.

Hey Don,
When you are done with the beautiful work at Extreme G. and you have those new wheel covers on, you will have what I would call a "Forevost"! Enjoy it for years to come.
