Rear Passenger Wheel Locked Up

[STRBramley]

I took some after market alloys off my 182 this morning and fitted some standard 182 alloys.
I've just come to move it and the car won't budge.
I've jacked it up and the rear wheel is really stiff to spin and will only spin for a quarter revolution before it knocks on something and stops.

Anybody have any ideas what could of caused this? I am sure I reversed it after I fitted them this morning and it was fine.

Standard wheel bolts?

No some crappy tuner ones that took the piss to get off. Would that be the cause?

I don't now how it works but if the bolts might be longer than standard it might be hitting something where it protrudes through the back.

Just pulling that out the sky though.

I'll have to get some standard bolts and see if that fixes the problem. The guy who helped me get the last alloys off took the locking key back so does anyone know where I could find one of these tomorrow?

Maybe have a look before getting too carried away, you might be able to see if it's the problem or not. There's also a slim chance the locking one is shorter than the others so you could leave that on.

What should I be looking for? There isn't a locking one, they all require a special key.

Sounds like the wheel bolts. Probably getting stuck on the abs sensor. Or caliper

Finally got them off and fitted standard bolts. Still catching on the same back passenger side though. Had to grind two threads off each bolt but only on that wheel :-/

Any ideas why? Maybe been in a crash at some point?

The bearing might be fecked and jammed in

It seems to be driving fine. What would be the implications of that?

Does it lock with the wheel off the car?

No. The problem was the bolts rubbing on something behind the disc. The problem now is I get the feeling in my brake that I get when braking on snow but only at slow speeds. That slipping grinding feel.

You best take it to Mick at Diamond motors, and get him to look at it, as you're clearly not sure what you are doing.

Will I have to leave the car with him? It drives fine and the braking is fine apart from the feeling in the brakes.

If you rang him and arranged it, I'm sure he'll look at it while you wait. He's a nice guy, and won't bullshit you.
