Awesome! Are those 2nd gen hub caps?

Are they on the back too?

They seem to match the angles pretty good!

No offense meant, but I still have yet to find a hub cap I personally like on the front of a dually...I would like to have one, but there just doesn't seem to be one that fancies me :?

yes, same cap on the rear. The caps that go with these wheels are about as boring listening to Duramax owners braggin on their diesels! I've tried several different ones, (mostly cause I work at at Dodge dealership) and none look as good as these. Of course this is my most humble of opinions!

BTW, I have put a little extra bend in the retainers and added weatherstip adhesive on the front caps lug nuts, as they can be knocked off if someone were to bump them just right. But, I drive this truck on my daily commute (sometimes, mostly drive my Omni GLH) and they cover the 100 miles without any problems, even in snow storms.

Jeff, you can take it like that. ;) I just think it's funny you ask for pics of his Omni. They looked better than a Gremlin, but only a little. :lol:

Taco, don't you have some fat chick to service? :roll:
