Can anyone tell me the specific size of the bit required to fit the many bolts that are used on the 18" split rims on my 2003 E85 please
I've tried to load a photo but its not happening ?
I'm hoping to strip and refurbish them over Christmas
Thanks
Steve

I found using a longer 50mm one best to "strike " them first should you find they are seized or even glued
Best of luck & take your time to remove them in a random star shaped pattern as opposed to one next to another . I also found leaving the ones that won't budge & going back to them helps :thumbsup:
 
Remove them with an airgun. Way better as you tend not to end up with the tool at an angle and stripping the splines in the head.
