help with wheel removal
Hi, this coming Monday, im going to re-chrome all my 4 wheels, what would it be the right way to remove them since im going to put my car on jack stands? should i disconnect battery before or after removing wheels? i want to prevent damaging the air suspension, thanks in advance.

lift car, place on jackstands, remove wheels.
no need to mess with the battery.
If you feel overly cautious, before dropping the car, start the engine and let the compressor run, then lower it.
i've never done this and not had a problem in 4.5 years, but it may be prudent if you're concerned.
