Stuck Wheel !

[Yanto_csl]

Intended on switching to spare rims / PS2's for the winter today and spent about a fookin hour tring to free the wheel up (yes....I did take the nuts out fookers)...

Its the front one I had recently painted which may have something to do with it....

Put the might of my bulk (no jokes) behind it and the fooker wont budge....next step is a sledgehammer....

Any advice from the site Sages ??

Cups for another few days and off to Elite on Thurs if no sensible answers :hahaha:

Whilst on the subject.....while tyres have been off the car (6 months), one of them has lost c. 5-6 psi (now 24)...normal or v.slow puncture ?

[shimmy]

Task it out for a spirited run and get it warm (make sure nuts tightened first) and then try to remove whilst still hot
As for psi, probably a slow puncture or loosing ari between tyre and rim if not mounted properly, or valve leaking.

I'm in a bit this week if you need some help getting wheel off.....I have a big sledge hammer

Make sure jack is very secure - rubber mallet on in side of wheel rim, rotate 90 degrees and same again, repeat with increasing levels of violence until off.

Remember to leave a couple of nuts on loosely, in case it does com free..

a bit of copper slip on the hub / wheel before fitting, we didnt have any when we fitted them at the track day but I didnt expect you would keep them on for such a long period
