Mahle Wheels

I am considering repainting my Mahle wheels,
and would like to know the proper way to
remove and install the center metal cap without causing it damage. Any advise would be appreciated. Thank You.

I use a small paint can (empty of course).

The can is small enough to just fit inside the center cap and press along the sides.

I then gently tap it out by hitting the can with a small hammer. Not too hard or the can will dent the caps.

I've removed mine several times and they look fine.

Karl,
Thanks for the advise. I will try your
paint can technique.

Regards,
Keith
