Ok, so I know this makes me look like an incompitent idiot however I for the life of me can not take off the center caps off my wheels. I DON'T wanna take off the wheels to "pop" them off. I have used the smallest flathead ever created and its STILL to big! How can I get them off without taking off my wheels. Its just to cold outside to jack up the car and take each wheel off to just pop off the caps. Anyone have a solution!?!? haha Thanks!

 

Use two flathead to wiggle it out might get it

 

You already know the answer - Take off the wheels and pop them off.

You'd spend more time trying to pry them off with screwdrivers (and you'll probably damage the centercaps, too).

 

yep yep

 

don't you have a garage now? set up a portable heater in there, wait a few hours, then take the wheels off and pop em off. i'm sure there is a way to do it without taking the wheels off but idk. taking the shortcut might lead u to scuff up the finish somehow.

 

Sometimes the longcut is the shortcut..

 

just do it the right way and remove the wheel. it will also help you from breaking the pressure fit tabs on the back side of the cap.

 

+1 just take it off, takes but a few minutes.

 

yes I know (to all of you). Thanks again, thats what I have done. Those damn air socket wrenches really **** me off, its hell tryin to get off lugs with a T-bar!

 

Pssst!


incompetent








Sorry, just HAD to.

 

Really? LOL

 

Nice and shiny badge for you!!

 

Geez, I hope you're not using just your arms and back to remove those lugs! Step on the bar and use your body weight. Easy as pie.
