Review on Drive Accessories KT 895 15S Silver Replica by Nick Garrett

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works and looks good but beware

The first set they sent me had a tear in one of the hubcaps. Replacement set fits. There should be instructions for them in the box because if you don't install them properly (use a rubber mallet etc) I could see how they might break. First align the notch in the valve stem in the ring with the hole in the valve stem in the bonnet when attaching the ring to the bonnet. Someone on youtube suggested taping the ring in an open spot (not under any of the clips) to keep the hubcaps from falling off later, so I did. Through trial and error I found that you need to start by aligning the valve stem and pressing the cap as close to the rim as possible to make it easier to snap the cap all over, otherwise you will have to use more force than necessary to get it to snap. With the cap firmly on the valve and pushed in as far as it will go, you should be able to slide it all the way around the rim with your hand without much effort. Be careful, it's plastic, too much force can break it. If I had to change a tire etc. I think I'd like to take the hubcaps off and put them on myself as the mechanic would probably force them on like people did with old steel hubcaps and break them. I put them on my cargo trailer, not a Honda, and they look way better than the rusty rims.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and bulky
