Place the standard BMW L shaped wrench on the nut such that the handle very close to the ground. 3. Then very very carefully DRIVE the car forward of rearward so that the rotation of the wheel will cause thewrench to turn the nut. A lot of times when the wheel is replaced by mechanic who uses a pneumatic drive to fasten the wheel nuts, they end up being too tight to undo.</blockquote>
