I will be going through the same thing here soon, I have a saab and the only way I can see to get to it, is from underneath. Im not excited at all for that part, but what has to be done has to be done! I too would like to know how smooth this goes.

Your car should have come with some kind of lug wrench.

Regardless, you can probably do it without taking the wheel off. I don't know why the wheel would even be in the way, considering.
