Install & Care Tips: 7 Mistakes to Avoid With Your HALODISC 2 Custom N

You just got your HALODISC 2 Custom Numbers—clean look, custom badge, motorsport vibes.

But even the best mods can wear down fast if used the wrong way.

Here’s how to avoid the 7 most common mistakes we’ve seen from real owners—and keep your HALODISC 2 looking sharp for the long haul.

01 / Skipping the cleaning before install ❌

Do this instead: Wipe down your wheel surface—especially the center bore—before installing.

Why: Dirt, grease, or brake dust can affect how well the cover locks in place. Clean = secure fit.

02 / Over-tightening or under-tightening ❌

Do this instead: Use the included torque tool and turn clockwise until you hear/feel a click.

Why: Too loose = risk of rattle. Too tight = risk of damage. That click? It's just right.

03 / Forcing the center cap in with tools ❌

Do this instead: Line up the red center cap, then press it in with your palm. You’ll hear a “click.”

Don’t use a mallet, wrench, or hammer.

04 / Using harsh or corrosive cleaners ❌

Do this instead: Use warm water and pH-neutral car soap only.

Avoid: Acidic wheel cleaners, degreasers, bleach-based sprays.

Why: These can eat into the finish or damage the embedded number/message.

05 / Taking it through an automatic car wash ❌

We get it—it’s convenient. But brush-style car washes are a no-go.

Why: Repeated impact from spinning brushes may loosen the center cap or scratch the surface.

Better: Hand wash or touchless pressure rinse.

06 / Letting hard water dry under the sun ❌

Do this instead: Wipe the covers dry after washing to avoid water spots or mineral residue.

07 / Using screwdrivers to remove the cover ❌

Do this instead: Use the included removal tool—gently twist and lift.

Never pry with metal tools. It can damage the edge or paint.

Quick Daily Care Do's & Don’ts

✅ Use microfiber towels and neutral soap
✅ Low-pressure water is fine
✅ Soft brushes work well in grooves
❌ No steel wool or abrasive pads
❌ No acidic / alkaline wheel sprays
