Was nice knowing you :)

Seriously though not got a clue :/ apart from getting under it and using a hammer from behind :/

leave the wheels without bolts on, then lower the can back down SLOWLY, the weight of the car should loosen the wheel off.

Drive it with no wheel bolts and wait for it to drop off.

me and mates have all whacked the f**k out of it lol

Nice innuendo there, well spotted and well timed.

As for the wheel, use a bigger hammer. If it's not falling off the jack/axle stand you're not being violent enough.

Russian screwdriver!

Nah just put the bolts in a few turns, lower the car down and drive slowly backwards and forwards for a bit ;)

put the wheel bolts back in, don't do them tight but just so the wheel won't come off. drive it up an down the road, try again.

If that fails, hit it harder with a bigger hammer :-)

And when it starts making a weird clunky sort of sound you know its come loose!

You're not wrong :lol:

had to do it on my old car a few times

Remove wheel bolts, lower back down then do the biggest burnout you can muster.

Make sure you have a friend filming from a safe distance

Happened in my mates car.

We were like "whats that noise"

wedge a plank across the back of the wheel and jack it between the plank and some part of the 6n thats not rotten away

aha cheers for the advice guys, will have a go tomorrow :)

its a steel wheel

Spraying wd40 won't do much harm to your brakes. You'll burn it off in seconds.

As said, you just need to smack it. Or if the wheel has holes in it, then try and get a lever in there

6n?

Scrap it, the yards always give the wheels back.
