I'm trying to find a set of 1960 Impala hubcaps to fit my rally rims(sawtooth clips?
I see two different types of mounts:
1. No clip(fits original rims)
2. Clips with sawtooth edge(works with rally rims)
Does anyone know why there is two types of hubcap mounts?
Thank you
Michael

The original 1960 wheels had humps on the rim to lock on the full wheel covers.

I ended up buying two sets from ebay. I don't see many so I bought a driver set and a nicer possibly show set.
