Ford Focus Changing to Spare Wheel Help
Hi Guys,
After you have loosened all the nuts on the wheel. How do you get the wheel to come off? Is there another lock keeping the wheel in place?
Stupid question I know however My dad and I have taken the nuts and locking nut off and still no joy.
Thanks in advance for your help

I take it you have alloy wheels on the car????
the wheel has stuck to the hub so IF you have a rubber mallet tap the rear of the wheel till it comes off!
what I've done before is replace the wheel bolts but dont do them ALL the way up let car back down and drive car backwards and forwards braking hard a couple of times which will break the seal!
