How do I determine what my hubcap/wheel cover size is?
To determine what size the wheel on your car is so you can buy the correct replacement hubcaps is quite simple:- First, go to your vehicle and look at the tire.
- Next, look at the various numbers along the outer edge of the tire.
- Find the line of writing on the tire that says something like P205/65R15. Sometimes this is written out twice on the same tire. The number in that line after the R is the size in inches of your wheel. In the above example, the person getting replacement hubcaps would buy 15 wheel covers. See the picture for visual representation below.

How do I remove the old hubcaps from my wheels?
To remove your old hub caps from the wheels of your vehicle is quite simple:
- First, get some kind of prying tool like the claw of a hammer.
- Next, insert the prying edge in between the hubcap and wheel a little bit.
- Gently but firmly pry the hubcap out. It will slowly give way and then pop out fully. See the picture below for visual representation.

How do I install the new hubcaps I receive?
To install your newly received hubcaps is quite simple:
- First, locate the curved cut-out that will fit around the valve stem of your tire, if there is one (some hubcaps don't need this so yours may not have one).
- Next, put the hub cap into place with the cut-out and valve stem aligning, if applicable.
- Gently but firmly hammer the hubcap with a rubber mallet or the like until the hub cap is snuggly in place. See the picture below for visual representation.
