Need a little help with centre caps on wheels.


Hey all! Hope you all enjoyed Sunday! I had a blast at the GCVW Meet and loads of stunning vehicles!

Ive bought myself a new set of gassers and im just on the final step of installing the centre caps. Anyone have any tips or tricks on how to do so? Thanks all!

Nick.

My wheels you got to install the centre caps on the rim, then bolt the rim on.

The centre cap slides in from 'inside' the wheel, in some instances.

Cool. I Solved the problem with a little mallet and being gentle. The centre caps get banged in with a mallet lightly until they pop in place. The chrome looks so sick!
