These are completely generic 17" hubcaps, so they'll fit most standard rims. My car originally came with alloy rims, which my not-too-gentle driving style eventually dented into uselessness, so I replaced those with generic, ugly, sturdy steel rims. After getting a few comments from relatives about having ugly steel rims on a German sports car, I got these. They fit fine.
To understand the difference they make, I have a long time colleague who has seen my car many times. The first time he saw it after I put on the hubcaps, he asked if I had gotten a new car. Sure, they're not as pretty as fancy alloy wheels, but they'll certainly do as a minimum level of looks for a modern car.
They're easy to install. Just pop the stiff wire retainer into the right slots, and pop them onto the rim. Took me all of three minutes to put on all four.
I was skeptical that they would stay on, but after two months, none of them fell off. I like the looks and they're pretty cheap, so I bought another set to use as spares in case they do. So I think I'm set for the life of the car.
bye
