Datsun OEM Wheel Trim Ring I.D.

[dhp123166]

What is it?

 

It measures 14 1/2" o.d. X 12" i.d. X 1 1/2" wide.

 

Thanks fellas...

Are they Nissan?

 

Could be 720s, they had 14" rims. The B-210, S10 and A10 had them but not 14" I think

[dhp123166]

Yes Mike definitely Nissan, these are one size smaller than 620 trim rings.

 

I guess logic would decree that these would be vehicles with steelies that preceeded the 620.

 

Namely the 520, 521, 320 (?) and maybe the Roadster?

 

If so I am sitting on a goldmine as these are NOS.

 

Thanks so much for your help.

Yes, never saw this on a 620s but was an option from half way through the '76 model year on the KC. The 520/521 didn't have the rings but these may fit just the same.

Seems like my neighbor went on and on one day, about how roadsters never came with trim rings,, stock, but i may be mistaken.

Yes you need to quit your job and find a good investment counselor. You have hit the mother load of rare and NOSeating parts there. You need to get those secured as soon as possible. Jay Leno is probably drooling over those :sick: :poop: :sick:

 

Those are  actually used  for hiding curb rash on your Panasports

[datzenmike]

Never cared for rings unless very wide and fitted to deep rims.

If it fits the 13" rim its for the a10 510 and b310, could also be the early 80's front wheel drive stanza as they cam with 14" wheels in 86-87. Earlier rings were smoothly rounded. No ridges.

Your logic is wrong. All those vehicles came with 14" wheels except the early roadster.

[datzenmike]

I assumed they were for a 14". If for 13" then B210/S10/A10. I don't think the 610/710 had rings but they woud fit.

[dhp123166]

You are probably right Mike.

 

Thanks for the input gentlemen.

 

I am meeting the seller again tomorrow to pick up more Datsun NOS goodies including a ton of literature.

 

I will try to find out if he can remember what they are for.

I never saw a B210 with trim rings. All the later B310 had them.

It seems your question has nothing to do with Trim Rings. Please post a new Topic with your question.

Here is a Datsun 210 factory Trim Ring

 

Smooth edge

Correct (I was generalizing) they had the honeycomb disc covers.

[tdaaj]

Except the honey bees, those had dog dishes.

[dhp123166]

These are from a 310.

 

Interestingly enough, the original owner used to  mount these on 510's as well.
