Any suggestions? Some people have reported that loosening the wheel screws a little (don't remove them completely) and then driving a couple of meters will loosen the wheel rim. I haven't had to do this myself as I prefer to prevent stuck wheels by proper preventive maintenance[1]. [1] A small amount of some anti-corrosion stuff (copper paste, aluminium paste, grease) on the part of the hub that protrudes through the rim. Do not apply any substance on the surface between the hub/brake disk and wheel rim. This surface should only be cleaned from corrosion and dirt. -- G–ran Larsson http://www.nospam.com/saab/
