i have seen a hubcap tool. it has a edge to pry it off and a rubber mallet to install. a rubber mallet just on the edge where it snaps on woulf prob be ok. you might want to think of how you are going to remove since you may not want to scratch wheel pryin' it off.

I install my hubcaps using the hubcap tool with the automatic pressure sensor - my fist.

I've seen an item hanging on the wall at Kool Rides called a Wheel Saver that is supposed to do just that. I don't think it's in their catalog so you'll prolly have to call them.
