Help!

I thought the snip programs were dead.  My eBay has a "max" bid entry and it only increments if the bid goes up and then only enuf to be the highest bidder.  My snipe program used to work that way also so what is....?

I tried to get my snipe program up closer to the end of bidding time and I didn't give it enuf time to actually place my bid.  I needed the full 5 seconds and I got outbid lotsa times.

What do I search under to look at "snipe" software?

Thanks

John

The solution I took regarding wheel covers was to purchase 6 identicle universal fit steer wheel simulators from a company called RVwheel. These simulators dont attach to the studs or any where near the studs. Instead they are fastened to an expanding ring that is installed to inside lip of the wheel. Using this attachment method allowed the use of 6 identicle covers. Same cover on the drive, tag and steer wheels. Having the same covers on the drive and tag wheels look great. Other benifit of using steer wheel covers all around is cost. Steer wheel covers are must less expensive. Total cost for all covers was around $500. Below is there website and call for best pricing.

Kenny, I can't tell from the photo, did you extend the valve stems?  Or are the covers easy to take off and put back on when checking tire pressures routinely?

Kenny

No valve stem extensions. Just remove the covers. They're held on with 5 or 6 fasteners that take a special allen wrench type tool with a hole in the center. Makes it harder to steal. A wrench comes with each set of covers. I can take a picture of the expanding ring that is assembled to the lip on the wheel that the cover fastens to if you wish. - Kenny

Oh another thing, take note of the previous picture I posted. The tag wheel (rearmost) is out even with the drive wheel. Not inset like most tag wheels. Had special rims made. - Kenny

John Ed, try auction stealer.com.  I use the premium service and use the 3 second time and only lose a item when the amount I put in is not sufficent.  Not perfect but usually works.  John
