Why you need one if you have T Kane hub caps

Watch how those brackets distort as you tighten the lugnuts on them.

I had the TKane’s on my previous coach.  The brackets distorted outwards when the lugnuts were tightened.  I ended up having to rebend the entire bracket, moving the 90 degree bend inward.  The cover would not go on until I did that.

Unfortunately, the folks at TKane did not have any suggestions as to why the brackets deformed or how to fix it. 

I loved the look, but hated the mechanics behind that look.

Yea, when I put them on after getting my new tires I had to take them back off and hammer on them a bit to get them where they would fit halfway decent. Mine are so bent up and distorted but I was able to get the covers to go on nice and flat after messing with them.

Thanks Rudy, yea I have looked at the real wheel covers before. I know some of the Prevost guys were putting those on. I do like the mounting brackets they use. That may be an upgrade for the future. I am still trying to get out from under my to do list of other priority items. Cosmetic items are currently on the back burner.
