I am sure this has been beaten to death, but are these rings true OEM Mopar rings? Is the fit and appearance correct? I would be looking for BRUSHED 1971 style rings.

If they are not right, can you recommend where to get the "right" ones?

Thanks

I have the MP reproductions aval at any local dodge dealer and they are nice, correct depth and look like orig but about $75 each. Those in the add may be the old 15x6.5 style that will fit but have have a gap because they are not deep like the org.

I am using the Wheel Vintiques Chrysler trim rings on 15x7 Ralleys on the front and 15x8 Ralleys on the back.

They fit the 15x7 with no gap and there is a small gap with the 15x8.

I don't know how faithfully they are to the original OE trim rings, those things don't concern me. I actually like the look of the generic trim rings they sell but because of the depth of the step in the Ralley wheel rim the non Chrysler style would not even attach to the 15x8 wheel.

I don`t know if they have changed since I bought them but the brushed finish on the WV rings look like they are chrome ones that have been hit with some steel wool. Not the same finish as OE IMO. This was a few years ago I bought them so maybe they are different now. I`m willing to sell them if you decide want them for less than I paid. New never installed. Mike
