    Dumb question...

    ...how do I get the center caps off my stock 18" rims? I just finished washing my VX, and I tried to yank off the center caps and none of them would even budge. It was getting dark so I decided to persue this later, but I thought I would ask anyway. Do they need to be knocked out from the other side? I remember with my Xterra I could just pull them off....

    Thanks -Bart

    If they are like my 99's 16ers they have screws that hold them.

    The cap is secured with 3 2-inch screws that are fitted through the spare and screwed into the back of the cap.
