?????????????????? hmmmmm.......I think you need to provide more info. if you need help taking of rims call AAA.
he he, I don't know what type of problem you are having taking off the rims besides them getting stuck to the discs. If so, go to a auto parts store and buy a rubber hammer and whack the hell out of the tires not the rims and they will pop off.

Im sorry but this is kinda funny. I see your problem though.
But I am sure Lorinser thought of this. There has to be a way to get them off. A huge a$$ magnet maybe? I dont know....

you dont remove the allen heads to remove the center caps 
there is a lorinser key that would go into those holes then you turn the whole center cap. If you can imagine a round magnifying glass frame and it has "teeth" on one side, where the teeth would fit onto the holes on the center cap. then you would rotate the whole key so that the center cap will rotate.
Man, i hope you understand what I'm saying.
The key is about $50-$100, depending how desperate you look when you go a wheel shop.
