Agree.
Noticed when trying to re-install the cap back over my "too tall" new lock nut that the hub cap wasn't very sturdy, totally plastic with a simple wire spring for retention.
Also wonder when the kids will discover that little more than a fingernail in the right spont will remove these things. The caps may become 2005's shiney, chrome frisbies.
Wonder if there is a way to secure these things without ruining the wheel appearance?
Simply don't understand what could have been in the designers' minds on these wheels.
NO, I know, PRICE and COST-CUTTING!!
