Noisy Vanity Rings

One of my vanity rings are really noisy when I drive. Especially when I hit a bump. It's an annoying loud squeaking sound. Any ideas?

Take 'em off?

They always do that. Might try some friction tape on the backside if you're determined to keep 'em.

Already did. The sound was buggin' the hell out of me.

I like the look of em'. I might try the tape idea. Thanks.

Mine made such a sound I took them off also. Once I learned the secret to quieting them down I put them back on.
Heres the secret.......into each of the small clips.....each one I say, put a dab of grease into it.
Re-attach them and drive happily ever after. They sure look cool with my new set of hub-caps.
If someone is looking for a cure to keeping the rust from invading cheaper chrome bumpers or Tiwan made hub caps let me know.

Clean the chrome really really well, then spray a coat of clear paint over the surface.
