Saturn Hubcaps Wheel Covers Information

All Saturn  hubcaps use the following retention system. Since the first year Saturn has employed plastic caps (see illustration A) that attach to the hubcap and thread on to the lug nuts.  The lug nuts on these vehicles (illustration B) have outside threads that accommodate the plastic caps

Installation of these wheel covers is easy. Line up the wheel cover to the lug nuts being careful to ensure the valve stem is lined up with the slot that has been precut into the wheel covers. If you turn the hubcap over, there is usually a icon indicating where the valve stem should go (illustration C).

Using a 3/4″ socket or lugs wrench,  thread the caps onto the lugs. Do not over tighten them or use any kind of air tool as this will strip out the threads, possibly causing a future loss. These lug caps only need to be snug tight.

There are numerous websites on the net that state “center cap not included” or do not show an emblem on the photo of the hubcaps. All of our Saturn hubcaps are factory original and  come with the attachment caps, ready to install.
