Question isn't too clear, but chances are your brakes are rubbing.. Definitely not the hardest fix, but that would be the first, if not the only cause of lugs getting hot

How do you change the wheel cover in 1999 Ford contour SE?

I belive on Contours they just pop off. Use a screw driver to pry it from the rim. Some cars, use the lug nuts to help hold on the wheel cover. So, before you pry. Look to see if your lug nuts are exposed.(Don't confuse this with fake molded on lug nuts) Then, see if it looks like the wheel cover is between the lug nuts and rim. If not, pry them off. If the cover looks like its held on by the lug nuts you'll have to remove them. You'll have to jack up the car to do this. Just remember to "break" loose the lug nuts before you jack up the car.
