Wheel Cover Stuck!

[Davie M12]

I'm trying to swap back to my road tyres today and when trying to unscrew the large nut that hold the plastic centre cap on the threaded part inside the wheel is just spinning!
I didn't realise this was a separate part of the wheel?
Anyway I've tried a few things WD40, Mole grips etc but it wont budge so it looks like I may have to break the plastic cover so I can get to the wheel nuts behind it!
Anyone got any ideas before I do this?

If your really stuck and soaking it in plus gas wont work then maybe drill two holes in the centre part so you can insert long nose pliers to stop it spinning. At least everything will still be usable where as breaking the plastic cover means you need a new one and they are very hard to get.

Thanks Metalman worked a treat!!
Now I just need some new drill bits!
Cheers and enjoy the weekend!!

That's a very clever idea.

You then just need the Noble logo sticker to cover up the holes

That was my next question!!
Where can I get the logo stickers?

[Metalman]

No problem, happy to help. If you do as bondy has said and get the noble decals to cover the holes then your problem is solved.

I have a few spare decal sheets (sheets of 6) I had made. I'll see what colours I have left if you are interested.

Hi Craig, yeah that would be great! I would take 2 sheets as I have 2 sets of rims. Silver rims with road tyres and black rims with R888's. Car is titanium so drop me a PM with colours available and what you want for them? Cheers!
