Wheel removal
I just put 20mm spacers all around and now I'm having problems getting my wheels off. I'm assuming it's due to the crush ring. Any tips on how to get them off? I'd like to find out how before I get a flat on the road or something...

I just kind of assumed it was a crush ring since it's a pain in the a$$ to tighten the lugs on due to the ring in the picture. My wheel is on there extremely snug now and I couldn't get it off with quite a bit of force.

You probably stripped the studs.

Thats a hub centric ring. Its makes your wheel centered when
You put it on. Put some WD40 and wiggle it from side to side

Thanks I'll give that a try. Its not going to mess up the wheel or spacer by wiggling it right?
