Hubcaps

Factory replacements to aftermarket spinners

Aftermarket hubcaps can be purchased for any make and model. Whether you're simply replacing the hubcaps you already have on your vehicle or upgrading to something a little more stylish, there's a hubcap out there to achieve your desired look.

Factory Replacement Hubcaps

Sometimes you just need a replacement for your factory hubcaps because one has broken, been damaged or simply fallen off on the highway. Replacements are readily available and are easy on the wallet - most will cost around $25. The pricier hubcaps are made of more durable materials and bolt on to the tire through the lug nuts instead of just snapping on. Snap-on hubcaps are more easily lost, cracked or stolen. Hubcaps for older vehicles may also cost more because they are either made from better materials or are harder to find.

Aftermarket Hubcaps

Aftermarket hubcaps are an easy way to customize the look of your vehicle without the expensive cost of rims. You can buy hubcaps to fit the size of your existing wheels, so you don't have to buy all new tires. Aftermarket hubcaps with a unique design will provide an immediate improvement to the look of your vehicle. A set of four custom hubcaps should cost between $80 and $100. Here are some of the popular types:

• Silver - Silver hubcaps are the traditional color and will look good on any vehicle. You'll find the largest selection of hubcaps available in silver.
• Chrome - Chrome hubcaps are the next step up from silver. The alluring shine of chrome finish will instantly draw attention to your vehicle. They'll look more expensive than they actually are.
• Spinners - Spinners aren't just for rims anymore. Spinner hubcaps function like regular hubcaps except they have an additional center piece that continues to spin even when your wheels have stopped. Spinners are available in intricate and crazy designs, such as a skull and crossbones.

Some friendly words of advice: Choose your aftermarket hubcaps wisely. The wrong choice could leave your vehicle looking tacky - especially if you go with the ghetto spinners.
