Dear Todd and mid-60s Buick lovers of beautiful trim!

I need a set of the spoked special wheel covers from 64/65. Anybody have some they are willing to part with?

Sorry, I sure can't help you with your question, but thanks for posting the photo.  I think I saw a Buick convertible with these wheel covers back in the 1980s and 90s, but eventually it disappeared.  I didn't realize it was just a wheel cover - it is a beautiful makeover!

Best of luck in trying to find them!

Cheers, Edouard  :occasion14:

They are a very neat looking wire wheel cover! They were used from 1964 to 1966 with the trishield flippers! I believe they were used to 1970 but with a notch style center, so if you need spokes or the back these can be taken apart to assemble really nice ones! The other GM's also used the wire covers with different spinners ,but if you need parts  this is some place to look!

Just realized I never updated this.  I received the ebay wheel covers and they are very, very nice.
