Wire Wheel Covers Question

Quote from pony65k

Did the April build, 1965 Styled Steel Wheels have the trim ring on them? If someone has it, can they post a close up picture of the 65 SS wheel from front and back?

I have access to a set of original SS wheels that have a trim ring. They originally came from a 66 'Stang. Are these the same that was on the 65? The wheels I can get are all chrome, ie, not black paint outs. Is this correct?

The S/S wheels used on 1965 models are fully chromed, and do not use the trim rings. The 1966 styled wheels require the trim rings to cover the rim area, which is not chromed.

You can probably find pictures of the simulated wire wheel covers by looking through the various Vintage Mustang catalogs.

Hi all.

On the build sheet for my car, it states that originally the car had Wire Wheel Covers. I gather these are hub caps? Does someone have a pic of the covers?

Check page 38 of the NPD catelog. I got one for a guy who had a damaged one a couple of years ago, but I thought it came with the center cap at that time. Anyway, it looked identical to his originals when installed as I remember.
