Review on Waylin Gray Lug Nut Bolt Covers Set of 20 with Removal Tools - Universal 17mm Caps to Style and Protect Wheels by Brian Krump

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A good replacement for the stock Audi A3 2016 caps. with a few caveats.

Ordered these after losing a couple of caps after a trip to the tire shop and laughing at how much an OEM replacement costs. These hats look good and fit well. 5 minutes or so to replace them all with the included removal tool. Overall I'm happy with this product although there are a few things to note: Firstly, as other buyers have mentioned, they are a bit darker than the OEM part, which doesn't bother me as I've replaced all 20 caps. Second, they have a glossy, not matte, finish, which annoyed me a little at first. However, once they were on the car, they looked good to me. Finally, they are made of a tougher plastic than OEM parts, so I think they could be prone to breakage if not carefully installed. Just make sure the tops of the cap are aligned with the ridge and that the cap is not tilted when installed and that they should slide straight when pressed evenly with the thumb and offer little but satisfactory resistance. Other things to note: The removal tool is up to the task and would be a good replacement if something happened to the original tool in my toolbox. Also, my package had 21 lids, not 20, so I have an extra one. I'm not sure if this was intentional or if I just benefited from a quality control error. In general, the first impression was positive. I will update if there are any changes.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
