Not familiar w/ RC, question though...

Does the Center Cap "Pop/Snap" in place or is it screwed on mechanically somehow?

Do you have the tool to unscrew the caps? Word of advice, wait until the wheel cools down...

Before trying to unscrew it. The caps should be hand tighten only because they expand when the wheels/brakes become hot. Even with the tool if over tighten and hot they won't come off.
