HOW DO I TAKE OFF MY CENTERCAPS

A: Konig wheels primarily have three types of center caps on the wheels. One type of cap is a push in center cap. The other type of center cap is a covered lug center cap. The final and third type of center cap is referred to as a bolt-on center cap.

For a push in cap it is best to remove those caps from the back of the wheel. If you can’t push them out by hand, using something carefully like the handle of a hammer with a rag around it can often work. Just be careful not to push too hard to avoid damaging the cap.

For a covered lug center cap, there will either be a screw holding it on from the front or there may be a small rectangular recess in the cap along the very edge of it. If there is the screw(s) removing it should help you take off the cap. If there is a small recess a thin rag around a flat head screwdriver should allow you to carefully pry the cap up and away from the wheel. If you’re not sure about what you have or have questions, please contact us for help!

The final type of center cap is a bolt on. You will see this cap mostly on our Flow Formed wheels. There are 3 Allen head screws that remove this cap. The other two screws do not need to be removed as they are part of the cap. The screws that need to be removed are noted below. The easiest way to note these screws is the orientation of the valve hole. We recommend a very small amount of anti-seize is placed on the Allen head screws before installation. If this was done, removing the screws should not be difficult.
