Change my back to summer today. Had to take a baseball bat to beat the rear wheels off due to rust. These are new steel rim installed last year in Oct. Anybody else have problem with the Toyota rim fit so tight onto the axle?

i had that last spring too....a tight fit is good....i sprayed some penetrating lube onto the hubs an hour before removing them....

i had a friend who would loosen the lugs a bit and then go for a drive while turning hard to loosen the wheels....

i like my way better, lol
