Hi
Will these fit my pacers?
http://store.nexternal.com/shared/StoreFront/defau...=587775826
The screw hole pattern is correct, but .... are they deep enough to fit the front wheels?
Believe my car would look better with some caps. I can also print some a/p stickers to make them look original to the rims...

Sorry... that link above didn't work verry good
Copied from the AR web page:
Torq Thrust "D" Plastic Cap - Old Style
Chrome plastic cap that came as original equipment with older versions of the pre (70's) American Racing Torq Thrust wheels.
The older screw hole pattern is 2 1/8" between cap screw holes (see diagram). These caps will not fit newer versions of the Torq Thrust wheels.
This cap features the original American Racing logo with two stars.

Looks like they might work. Original A/P caps are the 2 1/8th inch spacing on the cap holes and 2 3/8" tall. Cool roof rack! Big fan of black cars on Pacers..

Ah.. Nice pic I really like your car with those rims!
How wide are they? Did you try out the caps from nexternal.com?

| I know this is an old thread, but I see all of you guys have been fooling with Pacers. Do you know right off the top of your head what size screws for the center caps? I have a crusty old set and I don’t wanna run the wrong size tap through the threads |
