Default Any Good Websites To Buy Hubcaps?

Any opinions on what website to purchase new OR used hubcaps? You can't seem to physically find locations that sale them anymore. No "junk yards" in my area sales them.

I am in no rush as I want to get the perfect ones for my 1990 Dodge Xplorer with 15 inch rims. Thanks,

eBay would be one website that I would check for sure whether it is for a full set or just one hubcap replacement.

I tried googling "auto wreckers online" or "used auto parts" etc. and there are some websites
that appear to allow you to search for used/old parts online.
One I found
http://www.partshotlines.com/
looks interesting but I didn't really exercise it.
There are others, if you're willing to google a bit.

While prefer to recycle as much as possible, used wheel covers just aren't worth the price unless you get very lucky. It's simpler to just use JCWhitney and get a new set for 50$. They are the same as those sold in auto pats stores but with much better selection of styles.

Ebay. I googled the year,make, and model of my van. I got several places with either a "copy" for under $15. or "genuine" for 50. I bought 2 cheap ones,to save on shipping. Had them in under a week. Filed the extra one....

I ended up buying this set at an indoor flea market for 15 dollars. They cam from a 1970's Buick.

Those look great on your van.

FYI:

You may have had a easier time looking for "wheel covers" (that is what you have in the pictures).

Hub caps are much smaller, and are designed to cover the hub, not the wheel.

Now that you have found a set, you will probably start finding them everywhere.
