depending on design you may have to either remove lug nuts, or just tug on em.

Gotta remove those nuts first. Then it should basically fall off.

You mean wheel covers. Hubcaps just cover the hub.
And cheesy factory wheel covers look way better than steelies, although I run steelies b/c I'm one cover short, and 4 steelies looks better than 3 covers.
