Weight of hubcaps

[AudioGuy]

Have anyone noticed the weight of the original hupcaps are substanially heavier than the repro hubcaps sold today?

Mark,

I noticed it but didn't think much of it.  The originals you speak of were heavier gauge steel, chrome plated.  The new ones (OEM, not repro) are a thinner stainless steel with no plating.
