Default 1/18 EB C5 Coupe

Decided to try and make a C5 coupe with Lt. Grey interior. I started with a Torch Red coupe with Grey interior and stripped it and found a close match to Electron Blue.

The interior was redone in a lighter grey with some Vette Essential details.

Question: I have a set of thin 5 spoke chrome wheels to finish it off but I'm wondering if there is a trick to getting the wheels off? It seems that something will break if I pull to hard. Anyone know how they are attached?

I can't tell which brand your C5 is, but I know that they come off of the Bburago ones if you pull hard enough. I don't know about Maisto or UT.
