Wheel Covers/ Hubcaps

[mexor]

I have a 1989 240sx FastBack ..The wheels are stock, and I don't think I have enough money for good rims ..Is it possible just to buy hubcaps? I tried to take the hubcaps off today (unscrewed those 5 bolts) but the hubcap wouldn't come off) ..Do 240sx's have hubcaps ..or are they just rims w/o anything that comes off ..so I would have to buy new rims .. If they are hubcaps ..would these fit : http://wheelskin.com/Merchant2...BCAPS ..They're 15" (the size of the rims I have now) ..thanks Dave

dude, i didnt even understand ure question with how u worded it. look on the inside of the wheel and u can tell if its a hubcap or a rim if u cant tell just by looking. most ppl can tell so its hard to tell u if u dont know the dif. by just looking. Some1 thats familiar with the older models please comment. but i do know that the 95+ base models have hubcaps (i have em), just not sure on the older models.

Please dont buy those hub caps, just buy rims. I hate to admit it but I had those hubcaps on my accord I used to have all my friends made fun of me and about 3 or 4 weeks later i bought rims that was probably the worst $40 I have ever spent.

yeah if i were you i wouldnt buy those hubcaps unless you want to hear people make fun of you every chance they get. just try and save up for some cheap rims. oh and i dont think the s13s had hubcaps...i could be wrong though.

learn more about your car before you upgrade it...those 5 bolts are lug nuts, and if you have those on the outside of your wheel then you have rims which would mean that no you cant get those hubcaps. Save your money and get some good rims and tires...it will pay off. Believe me.

My 89 s13 has hubcaps, shes as base as base can get. I don't think any additional options were checked when she was bought....

not sure about the 89-90 models, but i know the 91-94 models of the 240 have rims,

I'm terrified that these people have driver's licenses.

Keep the assistance coming guys... Consider it a public service.

Dude, you didn't pull hard enough. Get a 15" pry bar , a crossbow , a flamethrower , and a battle axe , and hack away. You shouldn't have any problems. If you do, then you should consult with Tino.

lol.....dude you left out chainsaw.......and if it's really stuck on there try a sledge hammer. For the love of all that is good please don't buy those hubcaps, your car would look better with stock wheels with removed hubcaps.

I was under the impression that all s13's were 4-lug?

Now I'm confused....

if your car is an 89, you can't have 5 lug nuts, its a 4 lug car. and i HIGHLY doubt that someone would do a 5 lug conversion on the car, and put 15" rims on there and covered them up with hubs. u should be able to tell if you have hubs or not. i mean, if you knock on it, does it sound like plastic? if it does, then its a hub. if its hard and steel feeling, then its a wheel.
