Hi all,

In avoiding a driver who couldn't decide which lane to take , I managed to scrape up my front passenger wheel cover/simulator on my 2005 W24-based motorhome. They are chrome, 8 lugs (2 real) 22.5 inch.

I've contacted my RV manufacturer to see if they have replacements so I only have to buy the one. However, since they were acquired by another manufacturer a year ago, I'm trying to cover all bases and find generic covers just in case, even if I have to buy a pair to match.

Inet search has been futile so far. Most online stores seem to only stock up to 19", not the W24-size 22.5".

Does anyone know where you can buy replacements?

Thanks,
Ed

Thanks for the quick replies!

As with several others I found that C-World only carries up to 19" but it appears Dicor may have 22.5". I'll check out the others too.

Oh, darn, here it comes... I can't resist...

With the problems finding the larger covers to fit the W24, I have found that size DOES matter.

Sorry. I appreciate the help.

Since it says you are in Michigan I many have a deal for you.

I may have one in my garage.. kind of burried (Actually I know right where it is but getting to it a problem) Currently I'm near Flint MI but I live in Detroit. If you are planing on coming anywhere near Detroit in August let me know and I'll dig it out Will return home and start cleaning things out aug-4

Hi John-D,

I appreciate the offer. At this moment it looks like I'm all set because it turns out my RV manufacturer (Georgie Boy/Coachman) does have replacements in stock.

If it falls through I'll get back to you... I do live in the western Detroit metro area.

Thanks,
Ed
