For the last 2 months I have been working on a true knock off spinner to work on the stock Prowler wheels. It is a 2 piece billet design. The first piece is a billet cap that fits on the wheel and contours around each crome lugnut and covers up the tabs that hold on the stock cap, so they don't look like an add on but part of the wheel. The second piece is a 3 star billet spinner that reverse threads on the billet cap so they can be removed easily for cleaning without removing the wheel. The difference that these made to my car are incredible. I would like to know if there would be any interest in these. I can have 10 fully polished sets complete with chrome lug nuts ready for shipping in about 10 days. Cost will run around $590 per set and possibly lower with more sets sold. I will be posting pictures within the next week. I believe this is the best single improvement you can make to your Prowler to give it that true hot rod look.

I have a suggestion. Furnish estimated price quotes for sets in increments of 10 up to 100 sets. My guess is as the price goes lower, the interest will increase. Right now $590 seems high for center caps. Do they have to be billet?

I would be interested, if the trailer could be done too. Would hate to put knock off spinners on the kat and not the matching trailer. Would the same billet cap and spinner fit the trailer wheel??

If the center caps are the same as the car they will work. I haven't seen the trailer wheels up close.

The center caps on the trailer are the same but the wheels are not. The trailer wheels have a reverse offset. Behind the cap to the base of the wheel center is very much deeper. I can say for certain without seeing the new spinner cap. But if they are held on by chrome lug nuts as described I don't think they would work on a trailer wheel.

The first part of the spinner is held on using the little lips that hold on the stock caps. Once you put this part on you don't ever have to take it off again, it will stay with the wheel when you take it on and off. The actual spinner part can come off in two seconds for cleaning. The rear spinner will stick out 3/4 of an inch farther due to the deeper dish wheel. This makes it look alot better but is also a little more costly. The total product looks like it was made for the car and not just an after thought. I have taken alot of time working with a machinist to get these perfect. I expect to have a picture of it on the car tomorrow and everyone can see the time these took to make. Let me know if you have any questions, also I don't see any problem with them working on the trailer.

I should have picture posted around 9 tonight. They won't be polished but you will get the idea of what they look like.

I already have chrome lug nuts. What is the estimated price without the lug nuts?
