Place wheel covers over the non-drive wheels.

• A. False
• B. True
• C. Not Applicable
• D. Not Sure

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is that wheel coverage on wheels should not obscure the need to inspect the wheel and its lug nuts. On non-drive wheels you want the hub and fasteners visible so you can verify everything is secure and in good condition. Placing wheel covers over non-drive wheels can hide loose or damaged lug nuts, cracks, or leaks, and it increases the chance that a cover could become loose and fly off while driving. For these reasons, this statement is not correct: non-drive wheels should generally be left uncovered, or covered only if the vehicle’s guidelines specifically require it.
