    Anyone have any tips to get the center wheel ornamental cap off without breaking them? So far I’ve cracked two of the while removing…
    Yep, a bit of an embarrassing question given I used to be a mechanic.

    There is a pry tool that came with my t4r. Maybe your wheel manufacturer has one for these wheels

    From what I can tell based on the pictures and comments in this eBay listing, the allen screws aren't ornamental - the cap is bolted to the wheel with them: https://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Toyota...Bolt-On-Center-Hub-Cap-S1105-10-/361710460949

    Very good sir. Hey the screws on my vaps are ornamental. I wish there were hex head screws instead.
