Wheel covers or spinners are only suitable for certain wheels. While a certain car has default and suggested wheel sizes, it's possible to modify those wheels and hence get covers.

Wheel cap covers are universal. If your car already has cap covers you can change them for others. All you need to know when purchasing them is what size your wheel is and they clip straight on.

Wheel cover may appeal to a certain group of people however most people think they can look cheap so not a lot of cars have them nowadays. However you can put them on about any car you want. However this means find a rim, like a factory oem steel wheel, that has a lip for the cover to install on.

The only thing to take into consideration with wheel covers is brake cooling. If you have solid steel rims with little ventilation it's safe to assume that you can put whatever caps you want but, if the rims have large openings or the fender has duct work directed to the brakes then I'd use more caution in choosing a cap.

Wheel covers or hubcaps are typically only found on lower end cars. Nowadays almost all newer cars come with alloy wheels. Most people really don't like the look. They think it makes the car look cheap. Plus in order to get them you usually have to run a heavy steel wheel.

Hub caps are great for cars that are not doing anything extreme. If you hit curbs you may lose one or if you lilke to drive off road they may not be a good choice either.
