Been a while i'm looking to hide that center wheel.

I can't help with the center caps as there are many that wiil either fit of not.

However, I can definately recomend trim rings.
Most will recomnend ABS chrome rings and I agree.
You need a ring with depth olf 1 3/4 inches.

These are the exact same ones (same vendor, ships world wide) I got.
They are top quality and look great.

those arnt the exact ones your looking for but I found them to work perfect, and they havnt once fallen off, though they do weather in a year, I may need to get some new ones for myself.

Quote:

I added "dust caps" from NAPA to the centers to clean up the look especially since the axle on the front wheels are visable.
The dust or "center" cap is from Napa's Balkamp catalog # 730-2411
they are only a dollar or two per cap.

When you get the caps they will be a little bit too large and will fly off... so you will need some 3m double-sided tape (home depot/lowes), one or two layers will do it... dont be shy with the stuff.... apply the tape on the inside of the cap... before putting the cap on... this will make it easier. Once the tape is on... press onto wheel... use a rubber mallet to get it all the way on there... (btw these are removeable but should stay on till you need them off... no need to take them off to clean your wheels.

trim rings (can be found at any autozone/advanced autos/O' Reileys for about $10-11 per wheel... keep in mind that you need 15" sized trim rings

annnd..... wa-lah!

I think Toyota should delete the plastic hubcaps and sell the car with trim rings and centre caps. Looks so much better!

They are $39.99 for a set of four. Just select 1(set).

The 15" steelies for the sedan and HB are exactly the same.
You install and remove the trim rings just like a hubcap.

EDIT....
I originally mistakenly gave you the address of the auction for the stainless steel rings instead of the ABS chrome rings which I definately recomend.
Bellow is the ABS rings.
They are also $39.99 but, they are shipped for free so, they are cheaper

1) Metal rings can bend and dent, while ABS elimnates this problem.

2) Some people have problems with metal rings rattling.

3) Personally I think chrome looks better and the ABS gives a more solid apperance.

During my ventures, I've found that the stock Toyota hubcaps which come with the car do the job very well.
