Why aren't they coming off? Studs/nuts too tight?

Can't find a socket to get it off.

I've tried everything I have, and everything SCA has, and I can't go to a tyre shop to remove them because I can't get it home after, and I need it home because I need to change the hubs on them..

Hammer on a old slightly small socket

That's how the tyre shop got my old lock nuts off that I didn't have the key for

Why not go to a tyre shop they can get them off for you then just replace the nuts with cheap non alloy wheel nuts so you can do it yourself when you get the car home?

im giving tyre shops a call now. i can just see even more problems arising, ay.... eg/ put the cheap nuts on and then can't get them off at home.

If the problem is the current nuts there should be no reason that you won't be able to remove the replacement nuts

Btw they charged me $52 to remove and replace the nuts, 45min job

My mate has one of these sockets at work. It's too late to begin changing my hubs so I'll have to wait till next weekend.\

Thanks for your help guys :)
