can't Get The Wheel Off

Featured Replies

I can't get the wheel off my girlfriends daewoo cielo and before you say it, i know its a heap of shit but it starts everyday. But anyway its the RHF wheel and ive tried a dead blow hammer, normal rubber mallet, steel hammer and drift, pry bars, pinch bars, driving around the yard with the wheel nuts loose, running into the gutter with the nuts loose, RACQ can't get it off.

 

I'm trying an oxy tomorrow but other than that i think the grinder may need to come out.

 

Any more suggestions ?

kick the living poo out of it? throw the spare wheel at it?

Put a chain or rope around it and give it a yank with the ae71 :)

i got mine off with the nuts loose. had to do it in a side street. got to about 25-30 doing a u-turn before it came off.

Of course if anything breaks then I didn't say to do it :)

i once used a tailshaft like a battering ram against one edge of the tyre to get a mazda rim off a corolla. (mazda rim has a smaller centre hole, and basically cold welded itself on)

It's a l/h thread NOT a r/h thread :D

 

All you've been doing is tightening it ! :)

I'd like to see the photo of the girlfriend who can pickup and throw the wheel!

 

All my 'girlfriend' (wife) can do is pickup the mobile to call me.

We got it off but it took a rather large sledge hammer and we stuffed the rim.

I was gunna say depending on removal method, just put the nuts on a little bit to stop yourself going flying along with the wheel
