Keeping Your Toyota Hubcaps In Shape
by: Terry Brown, Tue Dec 6th
So your Toyota vehicle is no longer just another car passing inthe street or parked in another fellow's garage. Just a month ago you were bored with your car's looks and havebeen scouring the market for ways to give your beloved Toyotaride a little facelift without necessarily wiping the face offyour wallet, or your credit card. You were happy to find thatToyota offered a vast array of top of the line car parts andaccessories to give your car that additional zing - fromcolorful seat covers, floor carpets, and steering wheels foryour car's interiors to body kits, ground effects, spoilers andhubcaps for its exterior. For your car, you picked the Toyota hubcaps (also known as wheelcovers) - those round metallic disks designed to fit snugly overthe center space of a car's tires. More than protecting the lugnuts from exposure to the elements, Toyota hubcaps wereguaranteed to give your vehicle a boost to its overall style.You were amazed at the vast collection of hubcap designs youwere free to choose from: from the simple yet elegant steelwheel covers to the trendy hubcaps featuring a free-spinningcenter element, and to the upscale wheel covers which usedseparate anti-theft retaining screws with separate caps orcovers. Before you knew it, you were sporting a trendier cararound the neighborhood and the city.
So now that the new look is in place, how do you get to keep it? True, maintaining a complete set of hubcaps can be a realchallenge. The main reason for this is the process of changingtires. Every time you change tires, your Toyota Hubcaps must bepried out with a screwdriver or some other tool, whicheventually causes the cap to warp. Since few drivers diligentlycarry around rubber mallets with them, more often than not,hubcaps are reattached loosely and incorrectly. This ultimatelyleads to the loss of one or more hubcaps. To avoid this fromhappening, take the time to periodically secure your Toyota Hubcaps by tappingthe rim in a circular pattern with a rubber mallet. In addition, your hubcaps should also be cleaned periodically.When washing your car, always use a suitable cleaner. Use carewhen removing your Toyota hubcaps when changing tires to makesure you don't damage or dislodge any of the retention clips.Bent or missing retention clips will cause your hubcaps to falloff, a waste of good money if you never find the missing hubcapagain. When reinstalling the wheel cover, use extreme care notto break or bend the retention clips, especially when it comesto hubcaps with plastic clips. Apply pressure to the wheel coverevenly and gradually; never force the cover on. When installedproperly, your Toyota hubcaps should be evenly seated around theedge of the wheel. If in any unfortunate event you should lose ahubcap, you can find comfort in the knowledge that finding anaffordable replacement may only be a mouse's click away.
