Instructions for Removing a Stuck Wheel

Model: BMW Serie 5 E39 - Years 1995-2003
Part: Tires

If you need to remove the rear wheel, loosen the mounting bolts without completely unscrewing them before lifting the vehicle; then lift the car and place it on appropriate jack stands, finish unscrewing the bolts, and remove the wheel. The rim may be stuck on the hub due to rust formation, so it is recommended to spray penetrating oil directly on the hub area, let it sit, and then free the wheel with lateral movements. Therefore, when installing the wheel, it is advisable to clean the hub area and apply grease to prevent rust formation.
