Best way to remove 'vert centercaps?
I finally got around to picking up the centercaps for my 'vert wheels but no one local has the plastic tool. I don't really want to wrench on these with my big 'ole pliers.
What's the favored way of installing/removing them w/o the tool?

Former Moderator. RIP Icemark.
The actual BBS wheel cap wrench is pretty cheap.. less than $50 at most tire/wheel shops and around $25 at many.
they show up all the time on ebay for around $15

Girls = wimps so I need the tool or something to fab.
Or maybe I will man up and do it manually, thanks for the ad-vice.
