I know 100% that they fit the 14s. So i guess if you can find someone with 14" steelies and compare yours to theirs, you'd have your answer.

I just saw a picture of the 15s and they look to be the same as the 14s. Those caps just clip on to the lip that sticks out from the hub. So if there's a little bit of ridge on the lip you should be ok.

Heh, I thought I replied to this thing earlier... :) Thanks for your input, they arn't that expensive and my kids are looking for something to buy me for my birthday coming up. I think I'll just tell them to get me a set and just see. I want to paint them Red to match the other red accents I have on my car.

Thought about getting those rings that go around the outside and painting them red as well.

Even black on black, these really cleaned up the look of the steel wheels when I had them.

Those are exactly the same center caps that I currently have on my 15"' steelies.
So, they definately fit.
Here's a couple of pics of them on my car

BTW, that is a really good price.
I believe they go for about $26 each at the dealer.

The link in the first post isn't working anymore, but are these the same ones?

I ordered a set last week for Crashy when that ebay link was posted. They arrived today, and as already confirmed, they fit 15" steelies with no problem. They have four plastic tabs that clip onto the outer lip of the hub. I was pleasantly surprised that the caps from the ebay auction are brand new.

Hey! That's part of Crashy's charm. I actually wax the rusty areas to keep them looking good.

Got mine in more than a week ago but have not had a chance to do anything with them. They seem real sturdy to me too. Wish it was warmer out so I could paint my steel wheels shiny like Crashy's.

Does anyone know if these can be painted? What would you use and how would it hold up?

The issue is being forced as someone stole all four of my wheel covers off the car Sunday night!

Just use a primer meant for plastics, and then paint them with a compatible paint and they will hold up fine.
