I have a 34 chev pickup and need to find out about hubcaps. I am not sure what my wheels take. It actually looks like the outsid of my hubs are around 7.5" and are wire wheels. Does anyone have any measurments to the 34 hubs I can go on...other years? Not sure if my wheels are from the right year...or even chevy I suppose. Ryan

The early 1934 1/2 ton trucks had 6 1/2" hub caps. That is the same cap that was used on 1932 cars. The late had 8 3/4" hub caps. That is the same as what was used on 1934 Master passenger cars. The actual opening in the wheel would be slightly smaller.

Two more questions in regards to this: is there any other years other than the 32 passenger cars that are similar to this? And is the 6.5 inches the inside or outside diameter? Not sure how these go on the wheel...does the flange go on the inside or outside of the hub opening....I suppose that is 3 questions. Thanks much for all the help. Ryan

The 6 1/2" would be the diameter of the early hub cap. The actual opening in the wheel would be about 5 3/4". The 1933 Master hub cap would also fit the opening but it looks different.
