Default .::Stupid Question: 15" covers on 14" steel wheels?!::.

Before anybody begins to flame, read over the post. It might be a stupid question, but I was wondering if anybody attempted this before, and how successful they were.

I have encountered a set of 15" Honda wheel covers for really cheap, to fit onto a set of brand new winters on 14" Honda steel wheels that I drive on in the winter season.

I know the 15" covers won't fit perfectly onto the 14" wheels, if at all.

Is there something that can be done to the back of the covers to make them fit onto the steel wheels?

Has anybody ever done this before?

Does anybody have pictures?

Let me know, and please keep all flaming in other threads. I'm just looking for a bit of assistance.

I know its ghetto but... just cut the clips off the 15's and let the lugs hold it in. A friend of mine did it to his 13's with a 14 hub. Made it look like he had low profile tires. but again... it's still GHETTO..

I have been rocking steelies with the winter set, but it looks ugly, and they have begun to rust. Looking for some sort of cheap alternative.
