I have them on my wheels. They are pretty decent. 3 Alan screws hold it in the centercap hole. The spinner "cap" is screwed on and held in place with another alan screw. The chrome on the spinner part corroded pretty quickly for me, but they went on right before snow/salt season. Since then they haven't really corroded any more. I also bought the swept-wing version that you seem to be looking at. I like the look alot. Sorry I don't have any pictures of them installed.

Summit sells Cragar SS Spinners. I have them on my car and they are first class.

Yep, good stuff. I have had a set of the straight fin spinners from Ecklers for a few years now and they still look good. Nice quality plating on mine. Of course, mine get polished almost every drive and the car is not driven in the rain that often, so they are not in a tough environment other than a little gravel road. I have a couple of miles of that before I get to the highway when I leave home. They have held up very well.

I have the straight fin spinners, and I love em, haven't had any real problems with them, they're a lot shinier than the rest of my wheel.
