Thats because they are just hubcaps fooled you!

Amazing quality the shiny metal is not that cheap plastic with chrome paint. Its real polished stainless steel. The black middle is a very durable abs plastic thats been painted and clear coated.

I have some wax im gona put on the paint and some wheel polish for the metal lip later. Then they will really shine. The nice part about it too is the holes in the hubcap match up exactly to the holes in the factory steel wheels. So you cant even tell they are hubcaps even up close. Let alone when the car is driving. I payed around 15 bucks for the set on ebay. They had other colors and other styles.

They'd probably look pretty good. Plus, you could sell the OEM wheel covers on craigslist and come out ahead in the end.

That's a cool style, semi-VIP. Nice hub caps!

15$ That's insane. I was going to mention something about theft, but with a price like that it wouldn't even matter.
