Question: replacement wheel covers

I bought replacement wheel covers and they have tabs with a metal ring around the entire cover at the end of the tabs. Does this stay on the wheel cover when it's on the car to make it a tight fit or do I take it off before putting on the car? When I did that, it seemed very loose but I had problems getting them on with the ring in place

    They should fit tight and that's why the ring is there. It's not easy to get the wheel covers to seat the first time.
