Didn’t the rimblow get the horn button on wheel instead on center, hence why it calls “rimblow”?
The rimblow center cap is not a button per se, so is made to fit againts the wheel just as a finish cap. Wheel retainer and cap are made to fit tight without a gap. Being just need to cover the retainer itself is a low profile cap.
Now the tuff wheel center cap is higher to cover all around the button switch assembly and still being higher it gets a gap to clear the button function when pressing in againts the wheel.
Tuff wheel and rimblow wheel can be used indistinctly on any of the adapters, collapsible or not. But if working on an E body, I wouldn’t replace the collapsible unit. The regular “flat” spacer will make fit the wheel closer to the dash pad and your hands/fingers can meet with it. I have seen that happening on a friend’s 70 Cuda when installed a tuff wheel with the regular adapter.

Too close to the dash pad IMHO and dangerous while driving I think.
