    I got 50 merc caps on my 31',i align the hole with the valve stem so it gets lost in the reflection ,apparently i have selective ocd.

  3. Reminds me of my buddy who aligns all the "bowties" on his hubcaps, at a car show, so all the bowties are pointing exactly the same way and direction.

    Are you concerned on scratching the wheel from moon contact when snapping in/out, try putting some tape where cap contacts, it tightens cap up, did this on my chrome smoothies, caps were pretty loose, now good, same suggestion, tape where removal tool is against wheel, remove when done.

  5. My wheels are smoothies as well, but powder coated, instead of chrome.
    Yes, I'm concerned about scratching paint and dinging the baby moon, as well. Thanks for tip.
