Simple, right? Why not make it way more difficult and dangerous and do it the crazy Arab way?

Shocked

Turn the volume down unless you like Arab music!

I thought I had after posting this:

Wouldn't at least one of those wheels been a driven wheel? How come it wasn't spinning under power?

I'm not really sure how car drivechains work, can anyone shed any light on this?

Far from simple to change a wheel in the uk.

I bet most people couldn't even get the wheel nuts off using hand tools after some knuckle-dragging kwik-fit monkey has been battering at them with a 3/4" drive air impact wrench.

It takes up the wheel with the most grip.

You get drift nutters who weld the diff so both wheels spin all the time for more POWAHH
