Anyone have a helping clue has what is the best tool to remove wheel pins. I'm talking about the ones that usually don't have a reverse side hole. They have a flat spot in the center of every TF's wheel.

I know some of you have removed wheels before... any help?

I figured it out, just for future reference If you ever want to remove a pin, for the wheels to be customized. Here's the two ways you can do so.

1st) if you can see the pin, you can use a Pik tool to push down on the end furthest in. it should move it out enough to grab the rough edge with a set of pliers.

2nd) If you can't see the pin, take a soldering Iron, or drill and drill a small hole where the pin is hidden. Then to remove it safetly, use a Soldering iron to heat the pin up.

DO NOT TOUCH THE PIN WITH YOUR BARE HANDS!!!!!!

Use a pair of grips, or pliers to start pulling as the pin starts to get hot. Don't wait until the plastic starts to get hot, it should slide out before that.
