Search 'Hub Cap Popper' to view my homemade tool and Big Kev's reply with an actual Packard tool.

I've never seen those on a Packard six. First, gently remove the hubcap by working a small screwdriver or putty knife around the edge.
A cloth placed at the fulcrum would be wise. Once the hubcap is removed, you can easily remove the thin 'donut' without damage.

Thanks to all who replied. I remembered my set of auto interior panel removal tools (plastic) that I used when I replaced the door cards on my '76 F-250. Works great on wheel covers, too. Easy-peasy.

I use a paint can opener. Works perfectly.
