Have to ask what chassis your coach is built on ; and do the wheel covers have this decal in the center ?

There seems to be at least two versions of this.

In one version, the "nuts" are all fake except one which is real. There are YouTube videos telling people to find the real one and unscrew it.

That had me confused because on my Minnie Winne, I couldn't find the real nut and that's because they're all fake. They just push on and off. You can get a rubber mallet with a claw on the other end.

I leave mine off because I've found it so hard to hammer them on in the precise position to avoid damaging the TPMS sensors I have installed.

The hub caps ( stainless steel simulators ) were manufactured by Dicor ; and are no longer produced .

Retention method varied by rim size and chassis , there are at least three
I believe those on the E Ford chassis are a push fit ; retained by " claws " around the outer edge.

Check all the fake lug nuts for a stamped oval or slash ( there will be two on opposite sides , if there are retainers .
The oval mark indicates they are a cover for the actual retainer , the slash means they are the retaining nut and have to be removed with a socket .
Special plyers are available for the retainer covers with an oval .
