Hi all, Im new to Nopistons.com. I have a 91 Conv. NA (blue w/ white pinstripe) My one wheel bearing seemed to be messed up so I went to take off the wheel. When I went to take off the center cover, I couldn't find the tool. My toolbox that is supposed to be in the trunk isn't there. Any ideas or suggestions besides replacing??! I need all the help as Im new to these...

wtf??? so you are missing the BBS wheel wrench? is this a convertible? I don't understand what you just typed. How about going back and proof reading it and reposting your question.

 

srry, i didnt kno that is wat its called. I guess so...where do u recommend getting it or what could i use instead?

 

dude, i lost my the locking nut to my wheel. i have to use a ghetto stocker one for now. i had my car jacked up with the nuts right under it and i think a rat ate it.

go to the wreckers and start looking for smashed BMWs and see if they have on in their trunks

 

I use my hands to get the covers off

 

you COULD use a big adjustable wrench, just be careful on it. I normally just grab it with my hands, but maybe you have small hands? It twists off like a nut.



and cheers, what the hell were you reading he's pretty clear in what he said. He even specifically said it was a vert, he said he went to take the wheel off, and said he couldnt get the center cap off because he didnt have the tool.



maybe you need to read better before criticizing.



kevin.

 

thanks all! ill check to see if there is one available at a dealership.
