Thanks

Take off the wheel and use the base of a hammer, gently tap it in the center. Be sure to re-torque wheels.
I tried other ways and this is the safest way to take them of.
Best of luck to ya,
Tim

Sure, it can be removed if you don't mind 'nicking' up your rims. The center caps on AMG wheels are the same size as all Mercedes OEM wheels.
