They couldn't just use friction-hold wheel covers on my BUICK. Instead, some yo-yo at GM designed "special, double-threaded wheel nuts" You attach the wheel covers to these with plastic nuts.
This works well, if you never change the wheel !
Unfortunately, whenever I have the tires rotated, some numb-nuts kid takes the air-wrench to the plastic nuts, and strips them all !
I don't know how many replacements I've bought at the GM dealer......
GM's been doin' wheels a long long time. They couldn't leave well-enough alone.
