ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    really silly question

    can you take the hubcaps off without taking the wheel off? i pulled mine off and it got stuck, not sure if its the screws that hold on the wheel or something else. maybe im just weak.

    You're just weak, lol.

    Use a medium-sized flathead screwdriver and pry it off. -DONT- break it and yank it off, pry off a little bit then rotate and pry a little more off. There should even be a little groove for you to sticl a tool into to get it off.

      You dont need to take the wheel off. Just the lug nuts. The lug nuts have little plastic clips to hold the hubcap on.

        I was thinking center caps for like EX wheels, lol, sorry.

        Hubcaps should be the same way except for the lug covers. They usually twist on over the lugs.

          Not factoy Honda Accord hubcaps.

          you have to take the lugs off, then they should come right off.

                  Yes, lug nuts must come off in order to take the hubcaps off. Otherwise you could potentially pry and pry, but, there'd be little round pieces of hubcap around the lug nuts, and ruined caps (not that it matters-walmart chromies FTW jk!)

                  life is good.

                      Facepalm...

                      Just take the lugs off take the hubcaps off and put the lugs back on..
