A brand new set of wheel covers can spruce up your old car, or bring a brand new look to your pride and joy. Here’s how to select and install a set yourself.
Before you walk through the doors to Supercheap Auto, take a look at your tyres to determine the rim size. You’ll find a number that looks similar to this: “one nine five, six five, r fifteen” and of these numbers, the one that follows the letter R is your rim size.
Now take a look at the style options available in your size. All wheel covers come as a full set of four.
Unpack your chosen set, and install a metal retainer ring to the back of each. Look closely at the legs on the back of the wheel cover, where you will find that one of these legs has two different slots.
Insert one end of the retaining ring into the upper slot, then position the ring inside the remaining legs. Come all the way back around and insert the other end of the ring, into the same slot you begun with.
Use a flat head screwdriver to pry away any wheel covers already fitted. Now look over your new wheel cover for a cutout which fits around the valve stem. Not all wheel covers will have this. Align the wheel cover with the valve stem - and knock it into place using a rubber mallet.
If your wheel covers go on easily by hand, they are probably too loose. To rectify this, the retention ring can be adjusted. Just move one end of the ring into the lower slot to increase the tension.
So if you’re tired of rocking a bare set of steel rims, get into Supercheap Auto - and make your car something to be proud of with a brand new set of wheel covers.

Out of all the videos I've watched so far on how to install wheel covers, yours is the simplest and best. Gets right to the point and fully explains how to adjust.

Stop lying 😂

[@jaysons7581]

Just bought these wheel covers. Very informative video and straight to the point. Thank you!

[@TheKennyPowers1]

The rim size bit by just looking at your tire was amazing! Never knew. Lookin to get some black wheel covers/hub caps very soon. Thank you for the video

[@RAWSKILLZ1223]

It’s been said already but I love how simple and straight to the point this was! Thank you!!!

[@fatherdivine8005]

[@williamferreira1651]

Eu quero comprar 4 dessas

[@straya_au_]

thanks i gone medium just in case

[@specialed5055]

But both ends of the ring don’t fit, it’s too long

[@stock_glock-9710]

So the least resistance while putting them on means they are too loose. So more resistance is better when put the wheel covers on ?? I’m gonna go buy some today and just wanna be sure. I don’t want or need my wheel cover popping off while im driving that would be very embarrassing!!!!! Please answer back

[@jussjy]

exactly bro the tougher they are to install and jam into place the more secure they’ll be. u shouldn’t have any issues

[@EweChewBrrr01]

The only info I needed was the only thing this video didn't show. How do you fit the metal ring? What is the trick? It looks like the ring is oversized by about 25mm. I know where it goes but I don't know how to expand all the tabs or how to hold the metal ring to put all the force needed on it to get it to fit.

[@marniee.d.5511]

I’m sure EweChewBrrr has worked it out but to those who relate to this comment right now, you just have to push and pull the metal ring with a fair bit of force to put it in to the spacing.

[@EweChewBrrr01]

I did work it out it’s easy. You dont do it the way the video shows. You start by placing both ends of the wire in the holes. Very little force is required if you do it that way.

[@abdullahhamzah141]

I have question. Which rim is suitable to pair the rim cover on?

[@NormalGrump]

Same question

[@williamferreira1651]

Quanto custa,?$

[@KingSausage74]

These are around $45 on EBay.

[@Uknown76]

Too complicated

[@Missing_Text]

Or just spray paint the wheel silver

[@businessraptor134]

That dosent protect your hub tho...

[@ScissorN]

😂

[@Missing_Text]

@@businessraptor134 I mean like take the wheel off and then spray paint it

[@businessraptor134]

@@Missing_Text that's the correct way. I've seen too many people paint wheels still on the car... 😂
