2. Positioning the Simulator: Carefully align one of the wheel simulators with the lug studs on your wheel. Ensure the simulator sits flush against the wheel.
3. Securing the Simulator: Using the provided mounting hardware, thread the nuts or bolts onto the lug studs through the designated holes in the wheel simulator.
4. Tightening: Using the installation tool, tighten the mounting hardware in a star pattern (opposite nuts/bolts) to ensure even pressure and a secure fit. Avoid overtightening.
5. Repeat for All Wheels: Follow steps 2–4 for the remaining three wheel simulators. Ensure all are securely attached.
6. Installing Center Caps (if applicable): If your kit includes separate center caps, align them with the center opening of the simulators and gently push them into place until they are secure.
7. Verification: After installation, double-check that all simulators are firmly attached and that the mounting hardware is properly tightened.
