    WTB: Volk Racing CV-Pro Center Cap Tool

    Hi

    As the topic says, im looking for the OEM or equivalent tool for removing the center cap (~70mm) bolt on the rims. And no i don't want a adjustable wrench etc. The actual tool.

    Im not even sure if the caps just pop out or the bolt is actually threaded. Any insight into this is also appreciated.

    One of the vendors on here is bound to know a supplier.

    Pic of a Volk Racing CV-Pro attached.

    Thanks

    They are threaded on and depends how much you are looking to spend for the tool but I have one but if shipping is more than what you are looking to spend then I dont know if its really worth it.

    ^ how much? $50-100 isn't too much for me for something that will last the lifetime of the wheels. And mine don't come off by hand... They are way too tight.

    I just use an adjustable wrench and I haven't had a problem yet.
    My I ask what is wrong with using an adjustable wrench?

    Well.. the largest adjustable i can find is 2.5 inches. And i dont want to special order one..
    I tried clamps and thats how I got the fronts off, but the rears on too tight or something they just wont move and the clamp eventually keeps slipping.

    How about those rubber strap wrench? I got my oil filter out with one of those. Say, have you look into those 6 point oil filter wrench? I have three piece Modena and it uses the BBS wrench, 12 bucks shipped off E-bay but I think they are slightly bigger.
