Make sure you rotate through and hit each of the ears as you try to remove knock off.

Here are some tips from the SPF service bulletin regarding knockoff wheels.

Tips from the SPF service bulletin:

"- Right side wheel spinners are loosened by turning clockwise and
tightened by turning counterclockwise. Left side wheel spinners are
loosened by turning counterclockwise and tightened by turning
clockwise.

- Remove the spinner with a lead hammer. Hit one wing then move to
another. Keep alternating. Pounding on one wing over and over will
cause it to break.

- Apply anti-seize to the tapered part of the spinner and the wheel and
to the threads of the hub.

- Do not over tighten the spinners. This will cause difficulty in
removal and possible spinner breakage. Tighten spinners with a
deadblow hammer till it will no longer turn. Stop there; do not keep
hammering on it."
