Completing that JDM base model look by adding these plastic center caps to steel wheels, or steelies as they are sometimes called! They act as hub covers and should fit on steel wheels from many other manufacturers other than Toyota.

(Note that they are sold individually! I ordered four in total.)

Those look far better than any hub caps I saw

these look great, thanks for the recommendation, just ordered some for my new (to me) car. i don't like the look of hubcaps so glad these will make them look a bit nicer, my weekend project clean up is now to clean and repaint the steelies before these arrive next week :) also, saw someone on the amazon review recommended using a little black silicone sealant on 2 of the opposite lugnuts to help them stay on when you hit bumpy roads. anyways this will be so much cheaper than buying 4 alloy rims

“That’s problem for the guy who rotates my tires…” Err… no, it’s problem for OP who will be crying at the missing silver paint as result of getting scratched by a big flat head screw driver… 🤣 All jokes aside, thank you for sharing! 😊

No scuffs from taking the caps on and off yet! Even if the paint does chip off, it doesn’t matter to me

Bought these for my 1993 Jeep Cherokee many , many moons ago. Got them at low cost trailer parts for about $7.00 bucks apiece back them. Don’t take a rubber hammer to put on, unless you are gonna lymph wrist them. They just snap on over the lug nuts. Probably cost a fortune now. And the little slot is for a screwdriver or tire tool to take them off.

They were $8 each. Lightly tapping them on with a mallet is just fine because of the snug fit for certain applications! They can be easily removed with a screwdriver without any damage

Hubcap is a cover installed in the center of the vehicle's wheel hub, and its main functions include: Aesthetic Decoration: Hubcaps serve the purpose of enhancing the vehicle's appearance. They often feature brand logos, patterns, or designs that can improve the overall look and attractiveness of the vehicle. Protection of Wheel Hub: Hubcaps help protect the wheel hub from dust, dirt, and other debris. By covering the opening in the center of the wheel hub, they reduce the entry of foreign objects and contribute to keeping the hub clean and in good condition. Safety: Some hubcaps are designed with protrusions or tightening mechanisms to ensure the security of wheel nuts or bolts. This helps prevent loosening of the nuts or bolts due to vibrations, providing a safer driving experience. Reduced Wind Resistance: Certain hubcap designs have aerodynamic features that can reduce wind resistance when the vehicle is in motion. This contributes to improved fuel efficiency and, to some extent, enhances driving stability. While the specific form and functions of hubcaps may vary, they play important roles in decoration, protection, and safety on vehicles.

Just a thought, how about some trim rings to hide the ugly part? My friend has a Corolla and I was thinking of dressing the steel wheels up with center caps and trim rings, since she's already lost a wheel cover. I'd like to paint them silver but I doubt she'll go for that! Haha. Silver steelies over wheelcovers any day. Thanks for the video.
