No please, no.

Hubcaps look so bad they make the car look cheesy and more plain in a way. unless your steelies are really rusty.

It's your car though; but my winter steelies look better and cleaner without hubcaps.

Steer clear of your Pilot Automotive, chrome hub caps!

dood get the spinner hubcaps!!!

no really if the paint on them is still good leave the hubcaps off

obsnw · 11-02-2009, 08:58 PM

paint them silver, it always looks good

Derbagger · 11-02-2009, 09:01 PM

for winter, nothing is cooler than naked black steelies.

unless you go with a hubcap painted with a hypnotic scroll design for making other drivers dizzy.

Yeah I'm just gonna say no to the hubcap idea.

OneBadPig · 11-03-2009, 12:57 PM

I was watching a hot rod show and wondered what those old school moon hubcaps might look like on a Subie.

subyski · 11-03-2009, 01:06 PM

FFblevins85 · 11-03-2009, 02:24 PM

Wow, way better than buying cheap ass 14" American Racing or Ultra wheels!

Lol for paying $60 for a plastic hub cap.

Can't wait to drive around a trailer park to see all the 1984 Buick Centurys with them.

If they're 16's, I have some from my wife's old Outback you can have for free. I'm the other side of Worcester and could probably drop them in some random place (turnpike Charlton rest area) for you to pick up......

testify · 11-03-2009, 05:24 PM

I'd say paint them silver or throw some wheel covers on them. Black steelies make cars look like **** IMO.

T Wrex--OH · 11-03-2009, 05:56 PM

Paint them steelies,

Fluorescent Greeen!

scooby_wooby · 11-03-2009, 10:26 PM

Paint them gold!!! You'll be the only one pimpin' gold steelies.

CooperS431 · 11-03-2009, 10:39 PM

Forget hub caps! Get the Jack Chop instead!

Daveed · 11-03-2009, 11:10 PM

Steelies look totally fresh, but who knows, if you pop some hot walmart style hubbies on there you might start a trend...
