Hi all - just tried to get front wheel off my st and it wont come off!!! Have undone 4 wheel nuts and wondering if its got something to do with the huge nut in the centre of the wheel. Any ideas anyone? Thx
BTW what size wheel spacers can you get on without any probs? Thx Pete
Yep, its seized and just needs a whack. When putting it back on, it might be an idea to use a little bit of copper grease to prevent it sticking in the future
yeah just give it some welly! its only fused itself to the hub a bit!

Slightly different wheel woe. I've already had to replace a front wheel bearing on my '55 ST. Now the other one is going, at least I hope it's the other one and not the one I've already had done! Should this be happening on a car this age? It's only done 50k. Has anyone else experienced the same?
yeah i had to get all 4 of mine done twice on my old car... had them done when i got it then 40,000 miles later they went on the rear on the A14 i had to get picked up on a lorry and driven home
