    garage/tyre charges

    Guys does anyone know if a garage/tyre centre would charge to either losen wheel bolts or to change the alloys over?

    mine have been put on so tight, even with an extended bar there not shifting.

    Cheers.

    I think they would charge, but if you know any mechanics, guys personally I'm sure you could manage to get them to help free of charge, if not slip them a little something like a tenner to go get some beers, it usually works for me!

    That's cos ur a girlie

    If they've been done up with an air ratchet....they'll probably want air ratchetting off. You might be able to loosen then with a decent size breaker bar and a fat bastard mate to stand on it.
