Right I wanted to know if 12" steels wheels of past had the little tabs on to clip on hubcaps.. similar to this pic (i know the pic is a 10" rim):

Thanks all
No, their hubcaps are a different size and attached differently…well mine were anyways you might find other 12 inchers
The hub caps have tabs sticking out on the side you see
and they hook on to the slots like so…
wow my reflection looks so cool in the hubcap…
mine’s the red one
I have no idea what those wheels are. They came with the car from japan and I turned down the seller’s offer to replace it with 12" minilites
but I’m running on 10" revos now, and just had some 10" alloy steelies made up.
Sorry to reply to almost a decade old thread. Well, I’m looking for a set of 12" hubcaps for my steelies. Anyone making those?
They are like hen’s teeth, I’ve been hunting for a while for some genuine ones for a 1990s Mayfair.
From what I’ve heard, they are readily available in Japan. The question is, are they ready to bolt on, or slight modification is required…
Why isn’t anyone producing these in UK and/or US. Well, it’s all about supply/demand, so I guess there isn’t much demand for them as the 10” steelies.
Hillman Imp wheels are same fitment as Mini. They have 12" steels with chrome hubcaps. I’ve also seen a Mini at local show here with Morris Minor 13" and hubcaps, and another with early MG Midget 13" steels and hubcaps
