I havent seen these wheels that much but I think that they are the lacy wheels with caps from another style. Am I wrong?

Those wheels are a combo of two wheels. They are these wheels:

The center caps are the same size on both of these types of wheels. They look pretty good mixed together. I was thinkin about takin off my lace center caps and switching them a while ago, I could not find a full set of used caps so I gave up. But they are the same size caps.

eggzactly!!, yeah, they do look kind of kool. I have the caps, but had to through away the wheels, i know have the y-spoke, if you want to buy the caps ill sell them. 3 are aluminum and 1 is chrome.

I just bought a new Lace center a while ago. Thanks for the offer though a year ago I would have taken them. You don't have any spare Lace center Caps do you? My girlfriends (nyssa) Towncar is missing one, she lost it when she was driving, She wants a new one. If you have one that would be great.

Your first post shows the oem "Lacy" wheels, they are NOT the same as those shown in 95ltc's post. Look again in the area just outside the cap. The "lace" is filled in. 95ltc's post seems to show those wheels that were Dealer installed options where the Dealer didn't like the oem Lace wheels that looked too much like the older Lace wheels.

Hmmm, now that I look at it, they do look stock, It's a possibility the Original owner may have had the rims made for himself. I have never seen those rims before. Stock/factory anyways.

I have seen them on ebay a couple times, but not much, someone from another forum said there very rare.
