I have seen them before, just can't remember where. They look a lot like HJ Premier so maybe something of that vintage. Gemini brings back flashes of long distant memories? So maybe a upper spec TC or TX (or maybe even TA "Gemini")?

They aren't ugly..they sort of look like EH-HR Premier wheel trims....there are some really crappy chrome and plastic hubcaps out there..but they are not ugly.

But at the end of the day.... Hub caps are always going to be ugly to some degree!

My old HQ ones were pretty clean and neat though...

Here is a better shot of the wheels though.
