Question on Police wheels and hub caps

$

I picked up a 2010 Charger police that had the small hub caps in the auction pics. Well when it arrived, someone had scarfed the hub caps. I bought a new set of the caps. I believe the lug nuts are what holds the caps on? I don't see how else they'd be held on. The wheel is not designed to where it will hold the cap on. I'm pretty sure I have the right lug nuts too (I know the center caps take a different lug nut). I tried for quite awhile to get one on. I was afraid of denting the cap. It was like it was not going to fit on there. I'm also sure I have the right cap.

Anyone know of any trick to getting these on? I tried rubber mallet. Maybe I should put grease on lug nut ring? Just want to check with you guys before I go ruin a brand new hub cap at almost $50 a piece.

Thanks.

p.s. now I know why we've never lost one on our cars at work! It's Sunday and the PW mechanic is off today and i am dying to put them on, or else I'd check with him.
