Mike,
If you mean the flat aluminum ones, try Sirum.
I bought some from Clasco, in the old days
but only using them in the front as on the rears the grease covers would
have to be removed and I didn't what to do that.

Hello All
Can anyone tell me who is supplying wheel centers for Alcoa
wheels that read,'GMC' instead of 'Alcoa"?
Are they made by Alcoa?
What is the part number?
Thanks

I tried several times to call Chuck but kept getting a busy signal.
I'll try again tomorrow.
Do you know if they are block print or script? It seems to me the
only set I saw were Block, like the letters GMC on the front hood.
Thanks
