I have made my 2003 PT Cruiser a complete "Airflow" replica and would like to use the wheel covers from a 49 Chrylser on the wheels. the wheel covers are the old style with the little press clips on the edges to grip the lip of the steel wheel, however, the clips don't grip the wheel! Is there someway to get those to work? or is there an aftermarket steel wheel that can be used on the PT, not one of the smoothies. TIA
OEM Steel Wheels on PT won't take a regular wheel cover?

Love to see pictures of that Cruiser. I don't have an answer about the wheels covers but would you send me pics please. Send to snipped-for-privacy@sbcglobal.net and put PT PIC in the Subject line so I know it is not junk mail. Thanks
umm sounds like the wrong size?
or can you bend out the clips a bit (don't break them) so they exert more force on the rim?
They are 15" wheel covers and the standard steel wheel on the PT is 15X6. They should fit, unless older steel wheels had a different lip arrangement on the clips. However, I will try the bending to see if it will work.
Sounds neat. Have any pictures?
