Replacement Wheel Covers

Does anyone have a source for decent-quality wheel covers for my 2010? All the ones I am finding online have poor reviews as far as quality. And I don't want to spend the $150.00+ for replacement OEM covers. Any help is appreciated. Chuck

Mike’s hubcaps had very nice full moon clip on hub caps, you had to bend the spring tabs a touch , but I don’t know if they are in business any longer

My daughter damaged a couple of hubcaps on her 2011 1LT.

I ordered these and they are pretty good quality and fit well.

Hubcaps

Are they as good quality as OEM? No, but quality is decent and the set of 4 cost half the price of a single new OEM hubcap.

Another important feature of these wheel covers is that they bolt-on onto the lug nuts (like the OEM).

Many cheap wheel cover snap on, and can fly off when the plastic flexes or you hit a bump.

Thanks Steve but these won't work on mine. The bolts need to be offset from the spokes. I decide to go a different way. I have painted the rims black and found a set of beauty rims. Now I need to find a center cap that covers the lug nuts. I would like baby moons but can't find anything that doesn't require drilling the rims or some other modification. I'm considering something like this to finish it off. Has anyone used a trim like this or offer any advice? Chuck

That center cap is specific to the HHR optional 16” chrome alloy wheel I think.

There is no easy baby moon solution for the stock 18-hole steelies. It’s a bit of work. Discussed in threads in these forums.

No other easy way to hide the lugnuts either. Oldblue posted a nice creative solution though.

I just painted the center hubs black (wheel paint recommended) and used black lugnuts.

For my 16 inch steelie, I powder coated red and used centre caps for a Toyota pickup.
