Razor covers are mounted quickly in a few steps and there is relatively little to consider. When buying wheel covers is now actually. the comparison and purchase on the Internet. Within a short time your car shines again in the gloss and the aluminum rims are protected.
Step by step guide:
1 – First:
The very first thing to do is to clean your rim thoroughly and inspect it. If somewhere on the rim are still, when mounting the hubcap, annoying, easy to remove parts, then please remove them. If you are not sure whether part XY must be removed from your rim, the dealer you trust can certainly answer all your questions about mounting wheel covers.
2 – Secondly:
Bring the steel clamping ring over the valve recess.
3 – Third:
The third step in mounting wheel covers is the most important. You have to be careful that the hubcap doesn’t slip out with the retaining claws. The retaining claws actually only have to fit into the recesses provided for this purpose. Since this sounds easier than it is, you should rather get a 3rd hand to help you. With a 2nd helper, the assembly is guaranteed to be done in no more than 3 minutes.
4 – Fourth:
Once again walk along the edge with your hand and feel whether each retaining claw sits well. And your wheel cover is already securely attached.
If a hub cap does not fit…
Hubcaps are almost universally compatible. As a rule, it should not be a problem to take the wheel covers from one car to another. Almost all problems that occur when mounting wheel covers, can be solved quickly with the help of the clamping ring. The clamping ring is located on the inside of the hub cap and is usually a thin steel ring. The clamping ring should be adjusted so that the hubcap is firmly connected to the tire. The adjustment can be made simply by moving and thus enlarging the steel ring.
Done in a few minutes
Hubcaps are quickly attached and provide excellent protection for the rim from scratches, small stones and light damage. Since you are universally usable and there is a large selection, everyone can find a suitable hubcap for himself. They visually enhance your car and remind each of us of a beautiful spring. The sun is shining, so get out the hubcaps and hit the road.
