Oh Noes! I Got A Flat!

[180sxdrifterj]

i was coming home after a meet and i got a flat on the corner of mitcham and maroondah hway. i drove the car VERY slowly till i got closer to mine(not really closer, the cars abotu 20km frmo my house now).

i would of put the spare on, but one problem. they are Super Advan Racing Sa3r trispokes:

there is a special tool apparently to remove these rims. does anybody in melb have one i could borrow? or know of a way to get them off?

i need to get my baby back to my garage

cant you just unscrew the cover plate that is covering the studs and nuts?

From memory, there is like a circlip locking the center cap...unhook tht and u will be able to unscrew the center cap.

Problems aside.. They are some damn hot rims m8

i got it took the rim off and put the spare on... doesnt look hot no more

anywho, i went to the place around the corner; i need a wheel alignment and new tyres for BOTH front rims... so i picked up some off a top bloke off here..

and damn straight they are hot. going to be selling soon. but i will most probably look at swapping for some 18' rims, so if you guys have any you wanna swap, pm me

lol, there is no circlip. you just unscrew that big nut. and yes there is a special tool. you should have got it with the wheels, or with the car. BUT you can do it with your hands, or a really big shifter, or a hammer and chisel! (not ideal).
