anybody notice the sound the car makes when you are unscrewing the screws on the rims?

You screwed your wheels on? :shock:


:P Mine has nuts, which tighten down on the lugs. (AKA lugnuts) I would recommend you swap those out as soon as possible. That may be where your strange noise is coming from.

yeah bdballer69.. i've noticed some screeching from the lugs as well (where the lugnuts screw onto).. I'm taking it into the dealer, since it's been difficult to remove the lugnuts.. and to thread them back on.. might have some bad lugs.. i'll post what they find..

nope nothing wrong with the lugs.. had to center the lug holes in the wheel better.. duh! put some new lug nuts on and it's much smoother.. no worries

the above post.. i didn't understand that, i know what car i have it's how i know it's mine.. i don't get it..
