How to secure hubcap to rim

That’s the problem.
There are no clips, and the hubcaps were glued to the old rims with silicone RTV sealant. I was thinking about drilling two or four small holes through the hubcaps and drilling/ tapping the rim with a #10-32 screw. However, I hate to destroy the hubcaps. |

Maybe you could add some clips to the wheel that will hold the hubcap in place?

I was also thinking a machine screw would deter a thief from just popping off the hubcap. |

Those are clip caps. You need to screw clips to the wheel.

Those look to be the correct 61-63 clip hubcaps for your truck. Your truck did not have the original wheels on it when you bought it
