Default 1995 wheel lug nut cover problems

Hi there,

I I own a 1996 XJS convertible.

I seek for your help to find out how to take off those wheel nut covers from my wheels.

I do have the kind of plastic nut puller, doesn't work.

I am now thinking of breaking them

Your help will be appreciated

Best

Sylvain

Not sure why you would want to remove them. Does your lug nut wrench not fit? I ask because the lug not wrench that came with the car when I bought it did not fit. I just bought an aftermarket lug nut wrench (that I like much better anyways) and all is fine.

I learned you just take them right off with the 22mm socket. I think he is worried you have to take them off first, you dont.
