Most sets of Replicas arrive with the tension ring factory-installed to the hubcap mounting legs, as seen in the top picture. |

Some hubcaps have metal mounting clips, and the relationship of the retention ring to the clips looks like this. |

Locate the Hubcap to its proper position: |
![]() |
Hold the hubcap parallel to the rim all the way around. Apply even pressure with both hands so the hubcap is not tilted away from the rim at any point. Increase the pressure evenly, side to side, top to bottom, and the retention
clips will begin to slide into the rim. |

While you are installing your new hubcaps, this is a good time to take a moment and check your tires for wear and proper inflation. Avoid being stuck on the side of the road with a tire problem with a little preventive maintenance. The link below provides good basic information that will help you do it right.

Removing Custom-Replica-Universal "Push-on" Hubcaps:
Use a medium to large flat-blade screwdriver, slide it under the edge of the
hubcap, and lever gently. Move to several different positions around
the perimeter of the hubcap, levering some at each position until the hubcap
begins to slide out toward you. This action is similar to opening a
can of paint.
There is no trick to this, just use common sense and do not force them.
These plastic hubcaps can take a fair amount of bending, but they can break
if you push them too far. Treat them the same as any push-on original
equipment OEM hubcap.
