Loosening wheel bolts
If the wheel bolt is very tight, you may be able to loosen it by pushing down
the end of the spanner carefully with your foot. Hold on to the car for support
and take care not to slip.

Loosen the wheel bolts only about one turn before raising the vehicle
with the jack.

For wheels with a bolted outer ring, the grooved wheel bolts should
never be loosened. This could cause leaks resulting in accident.
