Removing wheel covers on 2014 Fleetwood Storm 28

Are the wheel covers bolted on? How are the removable nuts identified? How many are removable? Thanks in advance

If you mean the simulators, there should be two bolts that have grooves in them. They will be across from each other. When removing, be careful and use gloves, the edges under the holes can be very sharp. You will also notice the front simulators have a cut out for the tire stem to fit on properly.

Here's an installation video from youtube that should show you what you need to do:



Hope this helps.

two are removable and they have little cuts or dimples pressed into them to identify them. You should have recieved a special T handle to remove these. It fits over the two nut covers and looks like a large tire iron. You remove the false lug nut covers and the wheel cover comes right off.

Another way to find them quickly is tap on them. All but two will sound hollow. Two will sound solid. As stated they will have a little slot on them to help identify them. They are always opposite. Apparently some have more than two that function. The tapping method finds them fast.

I was at a tire shop awhile ago and my "T" wrench started to bend. The moron on the impact wrench started to remove them with the impact wrench, plus he was running it in reverse for a left handed thread. Managed to get him stopped before he did any damage. Gotta watch 'em all the time.
