I'm looking too, for my 75 22' Argosy trailer. Moons would be nice. The 6 lug steel wheels are for 7.00 R15 LT tires, and it looks like the diameter of the caps needs to be 10 1/4" on the outside to fit over the nubs. I ordered some from Les Schwab, $10 ea and looked nice, but were way too small. They fit in the inside of rim in the bolt pattern, but not tight enough. I'll continue to search and see what I come up with! Tom

I bought my baby moons from hubcapmike.com. My rims have the clips mounted to the rim that hold the cap. They have a very tight fit, I use a rubber mallot to tap them on.

They are L-159. Type airstream into his search and you will find them. He also shows a picture of what your rim should like.

I believe the OEM hubcap was a full metal cover with a compass symbol in the center and holes around the circumference. Same as Airstream except the middle was painted brown. I have one I can sell for $40. If you are interested send me a PM and I will send a photo.

Hub Caps

I went to baby moon - also from Hubcap Mike. I had 3 different---but similar covers before and one or two more in the basement. I may well have over a half dozen. I will sell those some day when I get around to it, but I highly recommend the moons, if you have the right type of hubs. I painted the wheels blue and it looks great.

Baby Moons! do it!

Our 77 has white spoke rims with brown Argosy center covers. Like to find some of them, but thats probably impossible. I do see that Inland RV has coned moon covers on their website.

I just purchased (from the person that bought my '04 Limited) a '77 26ft Argosy, two of the brown center caps are broken, I'm looking for them too. Came from 2nd owner in same family, his uncle bought it new. I think the spoke wheels were painted body color with orange pinstripes at the edges, as mine. It's a very well kept original trailer....

Hello,thank you very much for that information.I found a set of the full metal covers with the compass in the middle painted a brown(coffee cream).They look great.The brown matches the body colors very nicely.Please send a few pics of yours if you can.
Thank you

Do you still have the hubcaps in the picture? This is what I lost and will take it. Let me know if you still have it.
Thank you and appreciate your time.
