Tyre change. I need some help. I30 Coupe GD

EmpiriuS88 · **March 19, 2015, 07:01:36**

Hello.

I am trying to change the front tires with rear ones to even out the wear. But I noticed none of the wrenches fit the screws on Hyundais 16" wheels. So I am wondering what size are the heads on rims. I tried my dads Peugeot 508gt and the wrench doesn't fit. I tried my brothers aftermarket wrench for hes Fiat Brava (2000) with two different headers and it is still too small. Any of you guys know the size????

Thanks

Wheel nuts should be 3/4, mine are anyway.

Doesn't your car have the wheel kit/tools under the rear panel in the boot

No it doesn't. It has the compressor paste device.

Whats that

This is what is factory supplied with mine, all the tools to change a wheel.

"compressor paste device."

Same stuff as in our top-end RAV4, where you don't get a spare wheel, just an electronic compressor and some gunk that you squirt into a punctured tyre.

Like that works if you get a tyre shredded

Bloody cheapskates.

All factory wheel nuts are 21mm

21mm - 3/4 same thing

You're right, I'm wrong

I forgot the new wheels had smaller diameter nuts installed to fit the smaller holes

I actually thought that when you might have meant your new wheels when you said it. That's why I said "factory" wheels

I checked the socket I keep in the boot for the rims which had 3/4 on it but plainly forgot they had been changed and when you said they were 21mm I agreed before even thinking about it

then it dawned on me "I fxxxxd up"
