is there a knack to persuading them to fit snugly?
In this weather I'd put them on a radiator for a couple of hours to warm them up, then WD40 on the tabs and some percussive maintenance! Make sure the locating lug on the wheel is lined up with the slot on the outer edge of the cap. Hold that in place and then a solid whack on the centre of it should get it to drop in place.

Good luck getting the buggers out again though
