How to Install Forthing Wheel Covers at Home
Good news: you don’t need a mechanic to install them. Here's a step-by-step DIY guide:
-
Remove old covers (if any): Use a flathead screwdriver wrapped in cloth to gently pry off.
-
Clean the wheel: Remove debris, rust, or mud.
-
Align the valve cutout: Ensure the new cover aligns with the tire valve.
-
Push firmly into place: Use even pressure around the cover edge to snap it in securely.
-
Test by rotating the wheel slightly to confirm it’s locked in.
Pro tip: Always check the clip integrity before installing, especially with reused covers.
How to Choose the Right Forthing Wheel Covers
Choosing the correct size and style matters. Here's how:
-
Check your tire size (usually marked on the tire’s sidewall, e.g., 215/55 R17).
-
Match with vehicle model, as covers differ in design and clip spacing.
-
Consider finish type—matte black for a sportier look or chrome for luxury appeal.
-
Decide on budget—OEMs are premium-priced; aftermarket offers flexible options.

FAQs
Are Forthing wheel covers universal?
Not exactly. While some aftermarket covers claim universality, we recommend using size- and model-specific covers for the best fit and look.
How do I know what size wheel cover I need?
Check your tire’s sidewall for diameter (e.g., R17 means 17-inch wheel cover). If unsure, contact us for support.
Can I paint or customize my wheel covers?
Yes, many customers use vinyl wraps or automotive spray paint to personalize their wheel covers.
Do you offer replacement clips or mounting rings?
Yes, we stock OEM-compatible clip kits. Visit our parts section for accessories.
Will installing wheel covers void my vehicle warranty?
Not at all. Wheel covers are external accessories and won’t interfere with your vehicle’s warranty terms.
Are these covers durable for snowy or salty roads?
Absolutely. Our premium options are tested for corrosion resistance and extreme weather conditions.
