Hub caps or wheel simulators?

Are the wheel covers on the Thor Axis snap on hub caps or bolt on wheel simulators? If bolt on that brings up another question. Where do I get the wrench for it? I didn't get one with the Axis.

I'm not sure about the Axis but my Thor Hurricane is bolt on. There are acorn shaped nuts on the cover. Look for the ones with a little dimple in them. These screw off and the others are stationary. Our came with the wrench but I sure any RV or Campers World would have one.

Wonder,
On our 2016 Axis 24.1 and I am guessing your rig as well, they are push-on hub caps. I have popped off a few of them just like you would with a regular hub cap.

Thanks. Following BM48's description I checked and all looked the same with no dimples. I go forward now with my mini wrecking bar in hand to remove and do battle with the loose inner tire extension that has again come loose from the rim.

I have found a few of mine to swing around where they cannot be accessed too. Only had to adjust the caps once but I check the valve stems and hence, air pressure every time we take the rig out on the road.
