but how the hell do i remove the stock center caps to get to the lug nuts? i have the split 5 spoke stock wheels and i found the little tool that fits into the small hole of the center cap but still can't figure out how to pop it off. it felt like i broke something on one of them when i just put it in and tried turning/pulling on it. i feel like a newb [confused]

LOL insert the two prongs facing the lug, when is inserted all the way, squeeze it a bit and pull it out. They come out very easy.
At least you found the tool... took me a while to figure that out LOL

insert the tool in the hole and once it's in there give it a good tug. It should pop right out. Now when putting the caps back on, line up the 3 tabs and pop it back in with some force
