62 Newport 14" steel rims and poverty hubcap ?

Yes. I read that also, and I thought that is what my issue was ( wheel flex )

But now I see that 2 of my rims are completely wrong, and have no chance of holding on the stock wheel cover's.

I have a perfect set of 62 stock wheel cover's that look good on the car so I think I am going to try and find 2 correct rims with the nubs first... If I can not find any then maybe go a different way.

Yes I've thought about this over the years. I have 2 cars with these type of covers and they don't ever loose them. But they have always been adult owned and cared for, not flogged by wild stunt drivers. If that makes a difference.

I posted a wanted ad for 2 of these rims with the nubs in the parts wanted section of this forum...

4 little nubs equidistant around the outer edge of the rim as in the picture.

Most likely off an early 60's Chrysler... 14"

If anyone has 2 or even one of these layin around, it will be an easy sale.

NO NUBS = No Good for 62 anyway.
