Hi Jim, 1933 & 1934 face plates measure 28 1/4" outside diameter. Centre opening is 15 3/4" across. 1935 face plate is 27 1/4" outside diameter with a centre opening of 14 3/4" across. I think the tire tread covers are all the same except for the pressing raised up section hump (34 is wider than 33) and the 33 has a stainless ring moulding around it mounted in the centre of the hump. The stainless moulding or trim on the faceplates are different widths between 33/34 and 35. 1933-34 is 9/16" wide. 1935 is more narrow at 3/8" wide. Trim rings on 1935 are held to the face plate with spring clips and 34 has threaded fasteners with nuts on the back of the face plate. I have noticed very slight variations in these measurements on various covers and trims but the above is a pretty good guide. Regards, Kevin.
