What’s The Point Of Covers?

They increase the aerodynamics of the car which should increase your range. If it’d be noticeable, I don’t know.

Hashtag 1

The Amp alloy wheels have a cover that look like this.

You have to remove the wheels to access the fixings from the back apparently. If you can send me photos, please do.

The problem is, they look pretty crap with the cover removed.

The Prism and Rotor alloy wheels have a cover that look like this.

Hashtag 3

The Torque and Magneto alloys have a cover that look like this.

Thankfully on this model, they aren’t bolted in from the back. These just pull off. You can take them to the park and use them as death frisbees.

They are held on in 8 positions…

…7 plastic clips that go around the spokes…

…and a centre spigot that goes into the middle of the wheel and 5 posts go into the bolt holes.

When you refit them, you must get the orientation correct. Look for the diagram of the tyre valve (no, it’s not a quadruple amputee Lego man).

With the covers removed, the alloy wheels actually look good. They are a shame to cover up.

However, if you do remove them, you will have to buy centre caps from smart or the centres will rust.
