“To remove the wheel cover on your car, you simply need a tool to pry it off.
The rear end of some tire irons has a tool designed to do this. If not, a flathead screwdriver should do the trick.
If you have a flat tire but you don’t have a tool to remove a wheel cover, you may want to use the
towing and labor coverage
on your car insurance policy, which is similar to roadside assistance.
