When you reinstall the regular wheel and tire, you must
also reinstall either the center cap or the bolt-on hub
cap, depending on which your vehicle has.
.
For center caps, line up the tab on the center cap
with the slot in the wheel. The cap only goes in
one way. Place the cap on the wheel and press
until it snaps into place.
.
For bolt-on hub caps, line up the plastic nut caps
with the wheel nuts and tighten clockwise by hand
to get them started. Then tighten with the wheel
wrench until snug.
