Ok, first off i know this is a n00b mistake.
Anyways i bought my 05 Z400 last weekend and i bought a set of sandstars on ITP T9 wheels. Well, noone told me that i couldnt use my stock lug nuts on these wheels and i never really thought about it either. The stockers are the kind with the coned end. So i mounted everything up so i could ride this weekend. Anyways im home now and trying to get my paddles off. It seems as though they are permanently mounted to the hubs.
It looks as though those nuts caused the aluminum to "thread" around the studs. So now i cant get my wheels off.

Anyone have any ideas? Its really starting to **** me off. lol

 

o man that sucks @ss lol did you try to take them off with a impact?

 

I use the stock lug nuts with my paddles but I put washers on first and then flip the nuts around flat side in. I don't know if that's the right way to do it but it seems to work for me.
You might try a dead blow mallet on the back of the wheels.............

 

No. Also i forgot to mention that the nuts are off but the wheels are stuck. lol

 

put a piece of 2"x8" wood and put it on the inside of the tires (where the axle is) and hit it with a sledge hammer...should get it to move[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

 

Thats what i was doing this morning but i was soooooo sore i couldnt grip the wood. (lol)
I just went out and i got em off doing that. The wheels are a bit fubard but theyll still work.
