Someone asked to see what full moons would look like on an HHR.

Believe it or not I seem to get a lot of good comments on my Panel.

Basically there are two styles of full moons. 1. (mine) Brushed stainless steel with no hole for the valve stem. These tap on easily and have never came off two years running. If you need air you have to take these off to do it but I carry an old style brake adjuster wrench and they pop right off. They cost about $150 for four.

2. Polished chromed stainless (shiny) with a hole for the stem. I have debated buying a set of these and alternate usage. These cost more than the ones I have.

Have fun with your HHR - I do.

I love that look! Very "Back to the Future" style!

Boydie- Looking Good man..

Brushed stainless gives the most retro vibe imo..

3) there are the ones that are helds on by self tapping screws.

And the dome height of the disc comes in different heights.

Full Moon's or Baby Moon's are alright in my book!!

And... Old Blue you don't have to take them off to add air.

I don't think I would like Full moons on an SS unless it was a Panel.

Still want an SS Panel even if it meanrs a diet of bread and beans.

I love that full Moon fever but not the scratches from the clips that hold them on, I might go full moon screw on for next winter

When I first installed my full moons I noticed that they looked like they loosened up. For a couple of weeks I would go around and tap them on tight before I drove away - just to make sure. Seems the moons find their own level so to speak. You tap them on tight and they loosen to a certain degree. I quit tapping them on tight and they have never come off.

That leaves a gap that lets small stones inside and they make noise at slow speeds. One time I found a whole dried leaf inside the cap. You wouldn't think a leaf would make noise but it did.

Oldblue- I use electrical tape run around entire circle of 'clips' that hold on stainless trim rings on my old Flathead Trike.

They never come loose & when I do remove them, the painted rims are NOT scratched.. FYI.
