Re: [Chrysler300] Hood Pad 300 G



Rich,  I have approximately 44 Mopar original wire wheels; Dodge has 48
spokes coming to the outside of the rim.  Chrysler l953-l956 correct
only for these years have 48 spokes.  Imperial with the larger center
hole, used l953-1956 only have 52 spokes.  Sincerely,  Don Rook
