guess whos back, back again.. majins back with some questions.....majins back majins back majins back...
\ ok how tf do i remove my wheel caps from the american force spike wheels... in videos everyone has em removed prior. is allegedly 2 screws holding them on but i cannot find them.
 
Take the spikes out with a thin walled nutdriver? The cap likely snaps on there. Just guessing here.

Just looked at the manual. Two of those lugnuts hold that cap on.

These two circled here. You can see the recessed pockets under these two screws in the wheel in your video. The plastic cap extends under these screws.

For future reference... hold the camera still lol. It was nearly impossible to catch this in the video 😉

I'm such a dumb sometimes lol
When I rewatched the video I laterally tapped the 2 screws with tabs!!! Omylanta lol 😆 😂 🤣
Lighting was not good enough for me to see it 4 hours past my normal bedtime last night when I was actually trying to do this.

If it makes you feel better I took all them bolts out a few times before I discovered the 2 holding the centercap on.
 
Simple brain fart. No worries I don’t judge.

not a bad price to be able to swap my wheels whenever
 
Not a bad price but the shipping is ridiculous. They can put it in a standard envelope and added a extra stamp or two.
 
yeah i paid more for shipping than the product, i couldnt find one in 30 second search on amazon for under 14 bucks anyways so grabbed one i knw without a doubt will fit, my luck id order wrong size
 
letters only in envelopes.

OP asked a question .I just answered...And do posters ever read the manuals? unlikely

No need to read a manual TNT we have you to show us the way.
A envelope was nothing more than to show that there is other options.

Don't mind tnt. He's just a bitter old soul that sometimes feels the need to belittle someone to feel better about himself.

so untrue. I just wish the internet was used more for its Original purpose is all. some 20 years ago my now wife and her sister were talking about this promotional biscuit tool included in a bag of this corn flower mix. within 20 seconds I found a 2 set and Ordered them for the 2.A whole 3$

Well, he did use the internet. He asked us, and we gave him the answer. Ain't a damn thing wrong with that. If everyone used google and hunted down their own answers, there'd be far less activity here. I for one am glad he asked the question here instead, because I learned something as well.
 
I say we take @majin to the woods and drag him through the butt crack of doom (not dooms butt crack) then 20 lashes with his own radio before we drop him off at the train station 😜
Ahh... another Yellowstone fan 😅
