    You can stick the flat end of the lug nut wrench in under the cap, right beside a lug nut and lever it off.

    I know this thread is reeaalllyy old, but many people were curious as to how they were holding up....awesome. Very minor chipping, the chipping that has occurred is very small and only noticible up close to the rim. They obviously chipped and got chewed up when the wheel weights were pryed off for the new tires, but other than that, thats about it. I was afraid the chipping would spread, but it hasnt. I will try to get some pics up....when i wash them, they still look awesome. I cant believe how well the paint has held up...
