It was the very first time the wheels are open for rotation purposes, DIY... <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" />I find opening the bolt is easy, not THAT tight, after market tyre shop never sentuh the wheel before. Its SC service all the time.Btw, I was using a cross wrench. Its was size 17 bolts x 5 bolts each wheel x 4 wheels, all in 20 bolts!! Plus getting the wheels off the car after removing the bolt is another story all together!! The central hub was rusted and seize the rim tightly. I had to resort to use a rubber hammer to knock the wheels off. Plus placing the heavy 17" RFT wheels back, after the whole episode, I strongly suggest those with heart condition, please seek doctor's advice before undertake the physically stressing challenge!! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite9" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":eek:" /></blockquote>
