Mugs Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 So I just picked up a set of 14in white flat spoke Jackmans (came with only one month old tires on them too) for my 86 BRAT and I am looking for some center caps. I know there are some original ones out there. But what are you guys using if you can't find any...is there any aftermarket ones available. And Yes I did a search on here first before posting. Thanks Mugs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBrat Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 You mean 13 jackmans? The original center caps for the FLAT jackmans 78 Brats has bolts which screw into the hub, they will not work on gen 2 BRats, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLoyale Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 They offered Jackmans in 14" as well... Perhaps something like this would work. http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-3-4-APPLIANCE-HONEYCOMB-WESTERN-WHEEL-MUSTANG-SALEEN-CENTER-CAPS-70mm-/270912860049?hash=item3f13aa2f91&item=270912860049&pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr#ht_500wt_977 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the sucker king Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 don't know about the 14s, but the caps for the 13s were the over the lug type (they had four holes for the lug studs) I could take a pic if you need. What do the centerholes measure on the 14 inch wheels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLoyale Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Helpful link thanks to McBrat. http://www.indysworld.com/80s/general/wheels/wheels.html The center hole looks to be possible 2" in diameter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mugs Posted March 18, 2012 Author Share Posted March 18, 2012 (edited) Well maybe I don't have flat Jackmans...I am not very savy with the Jackman line. But I can tell you that the tires on them are 195/70/14 and they look like this so what ever those are, is what I have. Thanks for the link and I will look around some more. I think I have some old center caps from my Superior winter rims, that are larger in diameter because they mount from the back side of the rim. They may fit that way as well on the Jackmans. I was really hoping to get the suby center caps...to keep the "original" look, to the BRAT. But oh well. Edited March 18, 2012 by Mugs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBrat Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Those are the Jackmans they made VERY VERY few 14 inch for the lift kits, you got GOLD if they are 14 inch............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bheinen74 Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 or anybody can put 14" tires on a 13" jackman flat spoke rim, they just won't seal bead or hold air:dead: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mugs Posted March 18, 2012 Author Share Posted March 18, 2012 (edited) Those are the Jackmans they made VERY VERY few 14 inch for the lift kits, you got GOLD if they are 14 inch............. Yep they are 14's which is why I jumped on them as soon as they were offered to me, I wouldn't have picked them up if they were only 13's. I saw the "J" in the spoke, and the tire size and made a deal. Especially because they have BRAND new tires on them. I'll Post some pics later when I go out in the shop to work for a bit.
