You can actually

Cut off all the inner tabs, so its flat

Then cable-tie to the wheel

2 problems though
1) unbalanced
2) if you hit a pothole/low pressure will ruin them

You have 12" steelies? Why?

you wanna fit 16" plastic wheel trims over a 12"? 13" steel wheel to try and fake it to look like you have 16" steel rims running low profile tyres? please god tell me i'm wrong


did you miss the bit where they mention using 16" steel wheels to fit 16" wheel trims ?

All you do it cut the tabs off the 16" trims and cable tie those onto the 13" trims so they sit flush :) if that makes sense? I think they look awesome mate ;) DO IT!!

you seem to have spelt "****" by using the word "awesome" by mistake

Well the proper way of doing it is by using 2 set of wheel trims. Sorry for helping out by answering the OPs question rather than spamming his thread with a load of :w4nk: sorry keyboard warriors!!

@max4beats if you need any pointers give me a PM mate seeing as these spammers wont ;)
