Wheel Cap Question

SoCal BimMn' · 11-28-2010, 11:47 PM

Okay got a quick question probably going to be changing out my wheel caps out for my stocks soon buy didn't want to take my wheels off just to do so. So can anybody tell me any other way to get them off? I'll take the wheels off if I have to. Not a big deal.

Best to take the wheel(s) off otherwise you damage the caps. If the caps on the car now are scrap then use a fine screw driver to pry them out otherwise remove the wheel and poke them out from the inside.

Yeah thought about the same thing. Guess I have no choice. I don't wanna chance damaging my wheels. Thanks.

This would be the only other safe alternative IMO besides removing the entire wheel off. Great video Nick!

That suction cup is handy!
