Get it off! GET IT OFF!!!

[Voodoo.Priest]

I was changine my wheels for my winter tires today when I ran into a problem. My Supra wheels won't come off the rear!?!

The front came off just fine...

For the rear I did the proper proceedure. Remove the 4 nuts, jack the car up so that the wheel is off the ground and pull the wheel off. But oddly enough the wheel did ot come off whe I pulled on it. I double checked to see if I left a bolt on but that was not the case. So I then though lets kick this bastard off but eve the it still did ot budge.

I remember when I originally put them on the rear it was a snug fit because part of the connection plate went inside the hub hole. Not it seems that rust has seald it...

Any one have any ideas how I can get the rear wheels off. I really need my winter tires o cuz my summers ain't gripping for shit right now.

hummm spray it will sum good penatrating oil ???? let it sit awhile and try kicken it sum more what i would try

[ratboycom]

spray the hub area down with wd40 then get under the car with a hammer/dead blow and beat the piss out of it (hit the tire from under the car)

[89yotarollagts]

yup yup thats what i said

Put some anit-seize grease on the hub before you put it back on.

get a BFH and hit the inside of the tire and not the wheel, rotate it while you hit it standing BEHIND the car and NOT UNDER IT

Drive the car without the nuts till they fall off.... no really.

Ehh....maybe the hub is a lil to small for the rear you might have to get it bored out for a better fit.All i can say is KEEP ON KICKING IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that's what I had to do to get ym summers off ... felt like they were superglued onto the car.. luckly I had a sledge hammer lying around

but screw in 1 nut so that it doesn't go flying whenit does come loose

down here in fl. we get the alum. wheels glued to the hubs sometimes, we just get the car in the air, stand under it and start swingin

yeah i was talking from the under a lift perspective, of course if you have it up on a jack i wouldnt start whackin away

umm....why hasnt anyone sudjested pulling the center cap off and then using a large gear puller....(three fingers with a bolt in the middle, used to pull harmonic balancers off vehicles etc)

trust me....it works....jsut be carful not to take a chunk out of your rim

[ratboycom]

yeah the gear puller idea is a good one,
if they get really bad (the hammer doesnt work, this happens occasionally on trucks) i usually grab the rear axle or control arm hang from it and kick the shit out of it from underneath

what i've done with my mr2, because this is a problem.... is loosen the nuts... back the car out of the driveway, drive 10 feet at 1/2 mile hour or whatever.... barely moving, then instantly stop.... locking the wheel up just enough will free it up....
