I left my car outside for a year and a half and now, the wheels are frozen to the rotors. How can I get those off? If you have any ideas, that would be helpful.

I tried searching and didn't find anything. There are just the 5 lugs for the wheels, right?

 

Yep, undo the 5 lugs, then get a rubber mallet and tap the back of the wheel's lip while spinning the wheel. That should pop it loose.

Once the wheel is off, get a wire brush and clean all the rust and whatnot off the hub surface.

kick it

 

werd ^ This method has yet to fail me.

 

y was the car sitting out for so long (if u dont mind me asking)???

 

I got the wheels off. It only took a BFH and a few good wackings. Anyways, it was sitting out that long b/c of the lack of money. I blew the motor a year and a half ago and was waiting until I get the money to buy all the parts and get 'er running. Also, I'm doing a 5-speed swap as well.

 

dont you just hate when that happen??
I just kicked the **** out of it...
