This is going to sound really ghetto, but when I bought my car, the previous owner had siliconed the caps on. I don't know if you've tried separating two things that have been siliconed together before, but it took a razor blade, screwdriver, and hammer to get the caps off the wheels.

That is likely because you have the other style. THere are two kinds out there, ones with the good metal clips and then the cheaper ones with just the plastic clips. I am not sure if they sell just the ring or if it would even fit on the kind with just plastic clips. Try GM as it would likely be a dealer only item.
