    I've always removed the lugnuts (or broken them loose at least) before lifting the vehicle.

    Did these two fellas miss that day in Driver's Ed, or are they no longer hands on?

    All I know is how the f do you remove the lug nuts, lol. Are they covers and you pry them off? Their car is still sitting there. Are those just decrotive round caps? Heh, what the hell?!!! Lol.

    They’re still at it.

    They could be expensive aftermarket wheels.

    Yeah, I believe they make smaller sizes that you could use for that.

    Only aesthetic mods so far Leer 180 cap & Clazzio covers on order.
    Perhaps they should check the owner's manual - maybe they're just covers over the lug nuts ...
