    All of those are great.

    I voted original caps, meaning the poverty flat 10" caps with trim rings, in my mind.

    They look awesome on ANY Mav and are a safe bet for a poll with no 'right' answer.

    I would love to see a set of 15" rims fitted with the poverty caps and rings.

    Poverty caps?... I thought they were expensive...

    I have the original pointy Merc hubcaps too...l after the polishing I rather like 'em... but I'd LOVE to try a set of the "poverty caps"... is that the ones that were on the ORIGINAL Eleanor in Gone in 60 Seconds?... not the flaky Nicholas cage remake... but H.B. Halicki's classic. That's when I fell in love with Fords and the look of those hubcaps and rings...

    Here's my steelies - just posted in a previous thread... just postin it again...

    I'd say that it depends on what the Maverick is set up for (drag, street, road race, nostalgia, modern, etc).

    I have Pro Stars on a drag car and Magnums on a daily driver. I'm a little partial, but I think both look good in their own right.:huh:

    Although the Maverick is not a street car..............if it were I'd have the Magnum 500's..............really like them.
    On the drag car I've got Champion Speed Series....which have an SFI rating and didn't cost $500 a piece.
