Hi, does anyone know how to remove the alloy wheel centres on the st170 without them bending out of shape...have looked everywhere for a removal tool but still no joy....

Cheers

 

use the wheel brace but instead of bending out tap it in with your hand and failing that push towatds the wheel, it flexes it less but in the right spot.

unfortunaly though these are common for being a bastard to get off and breaking!

 

thx..i ll give it ago in the morninig....

cheers

 

you can buy the tool at a dealership

 

any idea what it looks like? ive seen one advertised for the st170, looks like a coil with a straight bit coming up from it but cannot see how it would remove the cap...

cheers

 

take wheel of and tap from inside??

 

wheel nuts are behind the wheel centre...cheers anyway

 

Good plan.............apart from the fact the wheel bolts are behind the cap
