Default RE: Wheel Problems

Welcome to the forum.

This often happens with alloy wheels sitting on steel discs (rotors).

If all the nuts are off jack up the car until it is just clear of the ground. Put a block of wood on the ground behind, and touching,the tyre and give the wooda firm thump with a fairly large hammer. You may need to rotate the wheel and try at a different point.
