A center cap decoupling device for removing a center cap from a wheel hub includes a hook that is coupled to a first end of a cable. The hook is configured to be inserted into a slot that is positioned in a center cap that is coupled to a hub of a wheel. A coupler that is coupled to a second end of the cable is configured to selectively couple to a pry rod proximate to a first endpoint of the pry rod. A user positions a second endpoint of the pry rod on a tire proximate to a rim of the wheel. The cable is configured to transfer a force applied to the pry rod by the user to the hook to decouple the center cap from the hub. With the center cap removed, the lug nuts of the wheel are accessible to the user.
