.. im trying to put my new (not really new, there used) axis reverbs on and they wont go on, im sure its some simple issue, but i really have no idea of what im doing, i can change a flat, and i figured that is all this would be.. 18x8.5 rear 18x10.5 Axis Reverb Rims with front 245 40 rear 285 35 ... thats the info i have on them, i dont know what any of that means..

im at work right now, my front left wheel off and i would like to get this done before my boss starts getting pissed so any ideas would be great.. thanks

 

Take out the bolt I think it's a 10mm. All it does is hold the rotor on.

 

so it will be fine without it there?

 

Why will the wheels not go on the car?
What is the problem?

 

they just wont push back very far onto the bolts, it seems like that little bolt is in the way(the one you can take off), when i push the tire all the way back it seems un even.. it dosnt just slide on how it normally would if you were just putting the original wheel back on.. sorry if my info isnt helping.. like ive mentioned, not really sure what im doing

 

+1 It is most definitely the bolt.

 

Just remove the bolt. It's there so tire shops don't screw up and put your rear wheels on the front.

 

awsome, thanks a lot for the help every one, i really apreciate it

 

yeah man i did the same thing lol i can relate. It does nothing but tell people not to rotate the tires pop that out and it should go on no problems.

 

This is probably the 100th thread about that bolt. Take it off.

 

Fixed

 

...its a difficult thing to look up with the search tool, if there was a known name for that then i believe less people would ask about it, but i tried to search but what exactly was i supposed to be looking for? i would have no idea how to find that info..


once again.. thanks for the help guys

 

pics?!?!?!

 

very soon, i should have some up tomorrow dude.. im lovin em for except for.....

new question

i dont want to start a new thread, i dont feel like getting any more ****, todays already been really fukin iriitating..

when they were shipped the front wheels rubbed against the cardboard and now i have very noticable scuff marks, around dime sized half way dwon each spoke(there black spokes w/polished lip).. theyre very noticeable... i dont want to try sending em back to the guy i bought them from(i dont think he would take em back) what can i do? is it possible to get fixed???

 

You got the wheels on the car. That is what counts. Its cool.

 

Start buffing, dude. If they're really abrasive scratches, then you're out of luck. If they're little scratches that you can't feel with your nails, get a nice scratch remover or polisher and work it in.

 

i forgot to mention there on black spokes.. does that change anything?

 

Nope. Paint is paint. Everyday detailing products aren't abrasive or acidic, anyways. Get a towel and buff away.
