I don't know if there's anything different about the GT-30, but with most Volk center caps they should be tapped out from behind with a rubber mallet or something similar. If you pry it up from the front you'll have a hard time and scratch up the wheel face.

I used a rolled up cardboard and mallet to remove it.

Remove your wheels and hit them out with rubber mallet.

this is 100x easier if u spray some silicon lube or some other lube on it first before installing or removing the centercaps. just make sure to wipe it off. i've had some rays wheels where the centercaps came with grease on the rubber rings.
