CHROME AXLE COVERS

[INKTOXICATED]

ANYONE KNOW THE RIGHT SIZE COVERS FOR THE REAR AND FRONT AXLE AS WELL AS WHAT SIZE LUG NUT COVERS FOR A 06 FL COLUMBIA. DONT WANNA GRAB THE WRONG STUFF AT THE PILOT. DO THOSE COVERS POP ON?

I'd avoid getting cheap lug nut covers like they sell at the Pilot. The metal ones rust and corroded and get stuck on the lug nuts and are a real bitch to get off after awhile. The cheap plastic ones fall off and the chrome on them also starts flaking. The best lug nut covers in my opinion are the Alcoa plastic lug nut covers. They hold up well and don't fall off, but are expensive. As far as hub caps I'm not sure what the exact size is. Some of those cheap ones will rust real quick also if you don't keep them clean especially in the winter. I spray paint the inside of them so they don't rust from the inside out. When you go to put the hub caps on the drive axles you're probably going to have to adjust some of the nuts on the axle until you can get the hub cap to pop on there, we're talking like 1/16 of a turn until the the flat side of the nut is facing out. If you can get to a chrome shop usually they will help you out with this. 8) 8)

Just park at a Pilot and pull them off the trucks in the lot until you have a full set that fits.

lol well i i ghetto measured the axle and then went in a compared it to the covers. had trouble putting the first one on got a lil dent in it... but the other 3 were easy. just put half of it on then snugged the other half where it needed to be and gave it a good kick into place. popped right on.. now i got a lil shine on my rusted white wheel

If you take some sand paper and smooth down the area then spray with WD40 they should go on without denting them. Also, only use the palm of your hand on the outside edge of the hub cap.
