pop them off from behind.    do NOT pry off from the outside of the wheel.

also, you MUST have wheels removed from van if you are installing the center
caps on the front of a 2wd van.

if you try to install the center caps on the front wheels with the wheels
mounted on the van, you will break the tabs off the centercaps.

trust me on this one.
