hey i'm new to this forum, found it a week ago, and its awesome. quick question, i recently purchased new wheel covers from auto zone, because i cant afford rims right now and i cant stand the covers they put on the versa sedan S that i own.

they other day i tried to remove the factory covers and they are on really good. i have changed wheel covers on my old saturn and they came off very easy, but the versa's covers seem to be on very tight. anyone ever remove their versa's covers, or know anything that can help me? thanks...

I've removed mine after I lost one of my hub caps. I don't plan on buying more and don't have money for wheels, so steelies it is! I actually enjoy that look over the hubs. Anyway, if you check your tire changing kit, there should be a rod that has a wedged end. I don't believe it's on the end of the lug wrench, but a different piece. You can slip the wedge in to pop the caps off.
