Best Tool to Use

What is the best tool you have found to use to remove your trim rings and center caps without damaging the rim, looking for some suggestions.

Re: Best Tool to Use

I've got a standard prybar, about a 12 incher, that I have wrapped with electrical tape. Seeing the proper tool is 12 bucks, I'll probably get one.

This, have one I use for my 71 4x4 on rally wheels, 71 Chevelle on rally wheels and my 57 on rally wheels. Guess I like GM rally wheels, huh? VERY handy to use and very effective. Beats using a screwdriver or lug wrench if you want to keep wheels and trim rings looking good.
