These where used as far as know only for 2 years 64/65. The caps are fairly easy to come by. The wheels which are unique to this cap are almost impossible to find. I have 5 wheels 5 caps and 4 extra spinner caps. Looking for anyone's idea of value? Thanks

Nice looking! I am no expert, but I would think that if someone needs them, the package should be a bargain at a grand and probably more, but you need to find the person who needs them. They sure would be a nice addition to the looks of an Olds of the period.
 
So what year and modal. I'm guessing late 60s cutless. And of I'm not mistaken buick had a similer set up on there hot rod.
 
Covers

The N93 option wheel covers consisted of cast aluminum mag-style wheel covers which bolted on to special steel wheels, the bolt circle was then covered with this snap-in spinner hubcap. This option was only offered on full size 88, 98, and Starfire cars in 1964 and 1965.

Found this info , same info I have .Pretty sure it is accurate. I need 14 ww for the 65 .Any 14,s I have found are crazy money in the size I need. I have a set of 15 cc rims I think I, am going to use and just go with 15 tires for the moment.
 
I remember seeing a full set of these wheel covers on a '65 Olds Jetstar 88 at John's Auto Salvage in Cabool, MO years ago. I haven't been back to that yard in at least 8 years, so have no idea if they are still there. I am sure that they could have been had for $10- $20 each at that time.
 
I have 2 sets(4 or 5 each) of NOS(still wrapped) Goodrich Silvertown bias plys in 850 & 900 14" tires that I would sell reasonably. 2.25" white walls on all.
