Well right now since I have nothing to do I was outside messing around with my car and noticed that I don't know how to properly remove my hubcaps without damaging them.
I know they're hub caps so don't give my any grief about the possibility of them being rims. Don't think they have any special key or lock that holds them on either.. How to remove my hub caps.. |

crow bar, or screwdriver... if they dont have a key to pop them off just gently pry them off go a little bit at top, bottom, left and right they'll pop off.

My investigative tactics always pay off!
After investigating the problem I figured out how to safely removed the hub caps and it worked! Basically I got some nylon rope and put it through on hole in the hubcap and out of the one next to it. This let me pull on one of the hub cap's legs which were connected to the support tabs I mentioned earlier, and a good tug yelded steelies! |

It's a sad day and bad sign when someone asks this! Especially something this simple that should be self explanatory.  |

I'm guessing he/she is 16, but I think I would have figured it out at that age.
