Hi all,
Anyone have experience of this? I have the Serron option wheels and wrecked a tyre yesterday. I came to remove the wheel and realised the supplied tools don't fit! I have the locking nut but it's the torx tool that is the problem. It's a double ended screwdriver but neither end is big enough to fit the sockets on the wheels. Just a heads up as I wouldn't want to see a member stuck by the side oc the road in this situation!
Edit lol the tyre man said that's for some thing else and pulled the fake caps off with the wire thing! Hahaha oops.
Cheers
Graham

I'm presuming you are talking about the black plastic covers. They just pop off using the metal tool that's in the tool kit. I had the same thought when I first changed my wheels
