Any ideas on how to get this undone?!

SUCCESS!!!!
I was passing a tool shop earlier so I went in and bought the biggest breaker bar they had (was quite dissapointed it was only 24" really) and the most manly socket on the basis I could fk that one up with a hammer if I needed to. The hammer being the last resort as I really don't like to repeatedly hit things (other than the misses of course *).
Anyway, I used a similar technique to last night but with seemingly better tools and after a couple of bounces they reluctantly undid.
Thank you for the suggestions and help chaps - got there in the end!

Nice one. I'd have just jumped up and down on the breaker bar but a results a result :-)I was passing a tool shop earlier so I went in and bought the biggest breaker bar they had (was quite dissapointed it was only 24" really) and the most manly socket on the basis I could fk that one up with a hammer if I needed to.

As far as I can tell standard procedure is to do them up to five trillion ft lbs and then double check this with a torque wrench set to 80. Job jobbed
snigger. That's pretty much what I've seen a few times In my experience tyre fitters can fit tyres correctly and that's it. Forget torque and forget the right pressures too.
