nick 3 Posted August 26, 2008 (edited) Take it to a tyre garage and whizz them off with the airgun. Nick Edited August 26, 2008 by nick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
number2301 1 1 Cars Posted August 26, 2008 (edited) Or you can get an open backed ratchet, I bought one of the right size from a local car parts place for about £30. Word of warning though, the original top nuts were a different size from the ones which came with my bilsteins, and the new nuts I got from Peugeot were a different size again.
