So apparently I am retarded and cannot figure out how to get my center caps without breaking them. They go on almost all the way and when I think they are going to pop in they just pop back out. Is there a trick to getting them on or something? Or am I just totally incompetent lol

or maybe a rubber mallet with a rag over the cap?

I usually just head butt the **** outta it. Make sure to use a rag so you dont scuff it

thors hammer sounds like a plan. thor is probably hung over this morning though so I will have to wait until monday to call him

seriously though, I thought the rubber mallet might work but I dont own one so I was hoping to do it at home and not at the hobby shop. bare fist works for **** lol

What kinda rims? Sometimes it's hard to pound in and you just gotta be a man and whack dat faka. Others have a ring that holds it in place and needs to be removed.

gram lights. I thought the center caps were going to be metal but apparently Rays is cheap and goes with plastic.

just give it a good smack and it will pop in. They make it tough like that to prevent people from stealing it.

I don't think I've ever had metal center caps so I don't know what you're talking about.. My Works, Volks, Mugen, and any big name wheels I've had were all plastic..

My volks were crazy hard to take off and put on. I think you're being kinda girly and not using enough force lol. Btw a lot of plastic center caps have the metal ring that helps hold um in place when it's on the wheel. Idk if yours does or not but yea. Just give it a man whack dude.
My volks had metal center caps. The ones that came with the wheels when I bought them, and the extra set I bought to get painted were.

I had Tenzos on my Eclipse back in the day that had metal center caps. Some of the other Rays ones are supposed to be metal, or at least thats what it said on the site I bought them from...

lol, I was using my bare hand and trying not to break it or the caps. The only other thing I had at my disposal was an up pipe. But if you think all marines are badasses then you need to take a good look at some of the guys in my unit... bunch of fat little ****s lol.
