Just wondering if anyone has these lying around that they don't need anymore:

- set of 4 center caps for 14" rally wheels
- 2 x Door hinge kits/bushings/pins

Shipping would be to Canada, T4C 1K7

I might have the center caps for $20 + shipping. The ones I have are for 15" rally wheels, I just need to do some searching and see if they are the same for 14" wheels.

Could you post a pic so we can be sure about the style you need ??




You should be able to find these in just about any parts store. ( might have to talk to the counter person if they are not stocked on the shelf in the "HELP" section )

Also, does anyone have an idea as to what 'type/shape' lug nuts I need for these wheels the ones the PO has on there look like a real assortment so I would like to get a 'matching set' for after I refurb the wheels

Thanks

IIRC, the rally wheels I had came with black closed ended nuts, they had something like a sheet metal wrap around them.

Any updates? Thanks

hhoping that you were going to post a picture of the exact type of cap you needed. I think the caps I've got are like the ones shown by Eric,... but I'm pretty sure mine were from 15 inch wheels from an 86 Coupe.

Once I KNOW what caps you need,.... I'll be sure to check what I've got and will post an update.

All I could find through a lot of searching on here is people saying they think 14 & 15" caps are the same. I think these caps have the "studs" on the bottom to hold them on. I'll check and take a measurement between the distance of the studs tomorrow.

Those caps are clearly held on by the lug nuts. The metal lip in that area is an indicator. If I remember correctly, they use the lug nuts with the plastic caps that screw on. My first SC had the rally wheels like that, but it was 26 years ago.

Still has the 19mm hex but the seat is wider unlike most lugs.

So in theory Eric's center caps should fit, as the bolt pattern on the 14" and 15" should be the same, even though the diameter is different, correct?

If they're both steel rallys I would think so. Looking at those made me wonder if they could be put on the 15x7 aluminum wheels as an option instead of the right ones that break, fly off and get stolen too easily.

By studs I meant the guides that help to clock the center caps in the right position. Sorry about the delay, I've been prepping for and cleaning the recent snow that we just got. The guides are approximately 3.5" apart. If the spots on your wheels are the same distance apart then the center caps are the right size and will work fine.

Gotcha, 4-1/2" Don't see many people that understand the concept of dragging an inch.

Here are a couple pics of the caps I've got that were similar to the ones Eric had:






Notice that the 2 caps on the bottom of the pic look very similar to the 3 caps at the top of the pic, but the mounting tabs are very different. I *THINK* that the 3 caps at the top of the pic were for 15 inch rally wheels in 86-87.... could be wrong. I do NOT know what caps should fit your wheels - You make the call.
