Chrome ring around the Rim

[Atekido]

SO during my drive back after my grandfather gave me the Suburban, I had a blow out.

I did not noticed at the time the chrome ring that fits inside the rim had popped off so sadly its gone... anyone know what the official name of that would be or if there is any chance in hades that another one can be attained. below is a pic of the chrome ring for reference.

And at 3 times the price, maybe a better match:

Thank yall! and wow definitely expensive lol

Not sure about your area but those beauty rings are common and maybe able to find in a local pick and pull or craigslist. That way you can have an original instead of new aftermarket.

Ive got a driver quality ring hanging on the wall in my garage. I'll add pics tomorrow and you make make a reasonable offer if you like. I'll both sell AND mail it to you.

Rusty are they pretty much universal? for this time period 83 suburban's?

I also have a couple i dont really need.

I dunno...but I bet so...they're stainless not chrome ...and they got 2 or 3 inch designs? 2.5?
Honda made a 1&7/8 , 15" ring...wish I had some on my Civic.

Trim rings or beauty rings.
I heard one guy call it "rim trim" once. That got me laughing.
I have one that looks exactly like that. It's been on my spare in the back of my truck. If you dont find one, or if no one beats me to it, lemme know. I'll part with it.

thanks I guess I can just measure one currently on there and see if its 3" or 2.5 ect

If I recall correctly, the 3" rings have a hole where the valve stem goes through and the metal completely wraps around the stem. The 2.5 " rings have a half-circle cut out on the inner lip for valve stem clearance, but the metal doesn't completely encircle the stem. It's been a year or two (or 30) since I worked in the tire shop, so my recollection may be less than perfect!

 

[Atekido]

ah ill check that tomorrow and see. thanks for the info!

 

[Rusty Nail]

Well...
I sure thought that was a "three inch" on the Blazer and the wall but I reckon it's more proper a 2.5.

Strange. It appears this may be a unicorn moment...one of them deals you only hear about...it's almost like one of those rare times that I dont know wtf im talkin about - so I'll shut up.
About that.
