"On this car, we're going to start taking off the wheels on the driver's side and then we'll work our way around to the passenger's side. One thing I want to point out, this car has hubcaps on it but the the lug nuts actually hold the hubcap onto the wheel. Now if you have the older style or a different style where the hubcap covers the lug nuts, then you can use a tool like this. Now this is a homemade tool, works really well that will fit in behind the hubcap, pop them off for you. Or you can use your tire bar like this also and you want to just work your way around the hubcap and lift on it three or four places, it will pop that off. Since this one, the lug nut's holding on, all we have to do is take the lug nuts off, we'll be able to place the wheel and the hubcap together as one on the ground."
