- Also called a hub cap
- Helps protect the wheel hub
- Can give your vehicle and elevated look
Increasingly, modern Nissans come with stylish steel wheels designed to impress sans hub caps, while others leverage plastic, steel, or metal hub caps to protect the wheel hubs while also serving a more decorative purpose. If your Nissan came with this accessory, you may observe that the Wheel Covers or “hub caps” no longer look the way they did when your Nissan was new. In some cases, after a long road trip or an encounter with a pothole, you park your Nissan only to notice one of your Wheel Covers is gone.
Just like driving in a dirty car doesn't feel as good as cruising after giving your Nissan a detail, moving around with worn or missing Wheel Covers dims your Nissan's luster. Nevertheless, your Nissan doesn't need to stay hub cover-less for long! With Nissan Parts & Accessories, you can easily find high-quality metal, stainless, or plastic hub caps made-to-fit your Nissan model and year.
Your Nissan's Wheel Covers are more than just an attractive accessory. A Wheel Cover also helps safeguard the wheel hub's components from dirt, gravel, and accidental curb-checks. Don't settle for a scratched hub cap or a dented wheel cover. Purchase replacement Nissan Wheel Covers to help protect your wheels' integrity and keep your vehicle looking fresh.
Typically, adding a new Wheel Cover is a straightforward and budget-friendly way to give your Nissan a cosmetic tune-up at home. In some models, wheel covers can be removed from the wheel hub by jimmying them loose with a flathead screwdriver. (Check your owner's manual or stop by your local Nissan service center for help.)
In some situations, your wheel cover may attach to the wheel hub's lug nuts, which means you'll need a tire iron or socket wrench to unscrew them. Once the nuts are removed, you'll be able to pry the current wheel covers off. Once the old cap is off, align the replacement Wheel Cover with the respective wheel lugs, ensuring that the valve stem aligns with the indented part of the cover. Finally, snap the Wheel Cover into place and, if applicable, replace the lug nuts to their original position.
