Welcome to the forums, you'll find lots of helpful information here. But please next time either search or use common sense before starting a new thread.

Welcome to the club! As BadViper stated, using the search tool is invaluable here. What part of GA are you in?

Default I tried the search

I tried the search threads under hubcap and rattles and found nothing . That is why I asked the question. Sorry I didn't try covers. I am not new to forums and know how they work. Don't assume I didnt try. Thanks anyway. Ed

What I did was remove the caps and bend the cap tabs outward. Then I forced them back into the rim. I had to remove each tire to complete. The tabs get loose and causes the caps to rattle. It was a 15 min fix.
