what the hell?

they WILL NOT come off...ive had 2 people help me, tried to chisel it off, WD-40 out the ass, wont come off.

ive got 2 protege5 rims up front and 2 racing harts in the back now.

soooooo lame...any suggestions?
 
have you ever hit a curb with them? possibly the lug studs are bent?? that happened to me once and I had to use a hammer drill to destroy the lug stud, then take the wheel off and replaced the lug stud as well.. i hope this isn't the case for you because it wasn't easy and wasn't fun :(

both sides???
 
Do a search for ideas, this is common and a lot of people told their stories!!! I think the best one was loosen the lugs SLIGHTLY and move it forward and backward in the driveway under power. I had to sit on the ground and kick my tires.

Search, we wnet thorugh this last year and i said something usefull. I can't remeber what it was now though (lol)

I think I used liquid wrench.
 
i ran into this yesterday turns out the dust cover for the axle hub was lodged in the rim it took some doing but i just pulled off the wheel. looks like i need a machine shop
 
crawl yur ass up under the car and kick the rim where the tire and wheel meet, hitting the tire just asorbs most of the impact ( its rubber you know ) just a few swift kicks is all it should take.
 
what the hell am I to search for? try it yourself, i cant think of any more relevant terms to search for!

i dont want to crawl under the car and start kicking it when its only on the scissor jack.....
 
im gonna go get some liquid wrench

1st mp3: im not b****y! i didnt think just 'wheels' would turn up such a relevant post
 
loosen the lugs.. back the car up a few feet.. loosen lugs a lil more pull it forward.. jack it up.. take the lugs off.. grab the rim by the spokes with your hands close to the center and rock it.. it will come off..
 
go to a empty parking lot and do some e-brake slides...that will loosen them up :)
