I"ve seen the 3 fingered tool for removing the knock-offs, but can't remember where I've seen it for sale. If I remember correctly, it is designed to be used with an impact tool in 1/2" drive.

Your lead hammer should work fine- as long as you remember which direction to hammer them..........

FYI. Finishline offers that, too. Most that have shelled out the $$ for it claim that it's a cool paperweight now. If you have a custom, deep dish knock-off (ala rear GT40 or other custom rim) then you need something that will give you the same leverage as a good whack with the lead hammer.

Ron--

Here in California our "WISE" legislators have banned the sale of ANYTHING lead. I just went through looking myself. My first hammer came with the car and only lasts about 2/3 set of on/offs with the spinners.

I got mine locally from Top of the Hill Performance Center--but I did like the suggestion getting it on E-Bay--cheep way to do it if you go through tires on a track
