I finally got my cyber covers from the service center (love them!). While installing them I noticed that the clips were very tight which is good for keeping them on the wheels. How do they do in cold climates? Do I need to worry about the plastic becoming brittle and pulling off a wheel cover could break clips? Has anyone had any issues pulling them off to adjust air pressure or anything like that?

I’ve pulled them on and off several times now as the first time I went through a car wash one got ripped off by a brush. First couple times no problem. 3rd time I broke a clip. I’ve seen videos of people just ripped them apart so that’s what I did. I suggest doing so a bit more carefully if you do it several times

They get yanked off EASILY. I lost a cover in a drive through and a good Samaritan let me know, but I don't even recall hitting a curb. Also lost one (different one) while driving on a straight, smooth dirt road.

Now I just leave them home unless I'm going to a show or I want to piss off the truck boiz extra that day.

Unfortunately they love curbs. As much as I try not to get too close ta a curb the wheel covers have found the curb numerous times.

When I went to add air to my tires because a couple of them were low one of the covers ended up with a hairline crack when I took it off. That was the first time the wheel covers were ever off. Less than 1000 miles. Be careful when taking them off

I finally received my Cyber wheel covers on 1-17-25 for my FSCB. Recently I removed one to top off the psi. The mounting ring came off with the outer cover and one of the seven mounting ring clips broke in the process. Bummer!
