Brakes problem
1995 Toyota 4Runner Four Wheel Drive Automatic

In trying to remove the front tire, I have encountered a problem. I have removed all of the lug nuts but the tire seems to still be bolted on. Do I need to remove the hub bolts also? This is my Sister-in-law's vehicle and I don't have that much experience with Toyotas. Thanks

HI there,

This will just be stuck on the hub, you should make sure that it is on stands and secure and safe, fit a wheel nut loosely, and lay down and kick the tyre left & right with your heels a few times, this usually dose the trick, but make sure it safely on stands and on firm level ground.
