The inner part of the wheel is stuck on the hub. A number of wheels have a smaller diameter than the wheel hub. They will come off with some persuasion, I was able to get mine off by laying on my back and "kicking" one side of the wheel, a nice rubber or plastic mallet would be a more "elegant" solution. BTW nothing wrong with relieving the inner diameter of the wheel hub "hole" with a grinder as the wheels are centered on the hub with lug nuts, not by the hub itself.

Note from the Moderator:

Do not post the same problem on multiple forums. You also had this on "General F-Body Tech & Info"..... is did not belong there. I moved it here, only to find you already posted it here, and already got the answer here. That is assuming you have a 4th Gen with late model wheels.

In effect, you wasted my time spent in posting a similar response in the other thread, and then wasted some more time by moving the thread.

PLEASE post the question on the correct forum, and post it only ONCE.
