You got to make sure that either the material is wear proof or you glue it to the front of the caps so it will stay on even if it wears through.

Also, leave a hole so you can still check the tire pressure and grab the cap to pull it off when needed.
Mine were fully covered and a pig to remove; pried the first one off with a flat screwdriver, then saw it was torn beyond hope and just cut through the foil to remove the other 3.
