I just got some used BBS LM's and the previous owner was using hubcentric rings, but they are too small to use on the S. I tried to pry them out with a screwdriver and broke my screwdriver. Any tips on how to get them out? Any help would be appreciated, my car is on jackstands!!

pop em' in the frig for a little, then silicone spray

 

i just tried soaking them in WD-40 for about 15 minutes, and tried banging them out and still no go.

 

gear/bearing puller? Made out of metal? Use a dremel and notch one side carefully.

 

yeah its made out of metal, i give up for tonight. ill give it another shot tomorrow morning and if not then ill take it to a wheel shop

 

Just cut it w/ a dremel and whack it w/ a hammer again. Do you have punches?

 

If they are plastic, which they should be, try cutting it out with a saw.

 

I don't want to spoil everything by asking you to reveal offsets and all, but were these in use on an S2000 previously? I don't use rings on my wheels...

 

these were not on an s2000, the ring is metal

17x8+45, 17x9+42

 

yea i think ur best bet would be to stick them in the freezer like someone already had mention. it will shrink the metal therfore should pop right off.....but it maybe kinda hard if the tires are on the wheels....if not cut them off.
