Porsche Nipple Hub Caps? Where can I buy them?

Steve, e-mail me at mlcarter306@bellsouth.net. I may have what your looking for. $68.00 shipped to your door for a decent used set of 4. Are your wheels wide 5 or VW 4 lug pattern? Michael

I'm in line..... sent a pm Alan

Thank you very much for the prompt reply and offer... But I am interested in finding New Caps if possible... Any leads?

Here's what I've got....a set of wide 5 nipple hubcaps that need new emblems installed. you can pick the emblems up at JPS. Any questions? just send me an e-mail! Correction on the price. $58.00 Shipped to your door (in the USA) Michael

Call John at JPS Motorsports...he should be able to fix you up!

I still have the hub caps....they need to go....make me an offer!

Get yourself a set of EMPI chrome nipple caps and swap the emblems. I know EMPI isn't the best choice (shoddy chrome) but if you keep them clean and waxed (and oiled inside) they'll last.

Hi All, which are best for 4 lug wheels?

The baby moons look better with the 4 bolt wheels but my suggestion for those looking for a more accurate historical look is to swap to wide five pattern wheels. Look at Lambros' picture folder and you'll see what I mean. When he first got the car it had 4 bolt wheels and he did the swap; his car looks absolutely killer.

For your visual reference, here are pics of my Speedy with 4-lug wheel & Empi nipple/crests hubcaps. They were on the car when I bought it.

As Ricardo mentioned, wax on exterior and light oil on interior of hubcap prolong their looks (mine are 10 years old).

Jim, was there any fab work needed to fit those to the 4 lug?

Jason -

These hubcaps were on the car when I bought it. These nipple hubcaps (with Porsche crest) were made specifically for the 4-bolt wheel, so no fabrication.
