Unfortunatey, no.  The 62 hubcaps will fit 61-64 rims, but the 65 and up rims are too small for them, even though they are both 15 inch rims.

Us it the depth?  I photoshopped some on my car that looked sweet!  I wonder if 57s would work... They have a similar look.

It's not the depth, they are too wide.  If you put a 69 hubcap on a 62, it will fit inside the lip of the rim, and a 62 on a 69 will be outside the lip.

Tim is of course absolutely correct. I deal in 63 & 64 Cadillac Parts and obtained a set of 65 rims that are pretty useless for the 63 & 64 unless you want to use a 65 or later wheel cover. I've got them on our For Sale Forum with 70's wheel covers at this link: http://forums.cadillaclasalleclub.org/index.php?topic=124054.0

Ive got to make it work.The combo would look so good, where there's a will....

I guess you need to find out if a set of 61/62 rims will clear the front disc brake setup on your 69 and get a set of those rims.

Factory wire caps from the later year cars were a real popular upgrade to the 69's and 70's.

A 69 with 62 caps...  Never saw that...
