why is your wheel still on the car?

take the wheel off to get you more clearance.

so you are trying to lower the car?

spin the lower locking colar all the way down, first, this gives you more room to adjust the top color, 2nd, it exposes the threads to see if there is dirt, rust, whatever thats preventing you from adjusting them.

chances are, if you have not adjusted them within a years time, there may be some corrosion, you may need a center punch to one of those teeth on the colar just enough of an impact to break it loose.

and these are teins right? the adjusting wrench should have 2 holes in it, 1 is a hex hole, other is a 1/2in socket hole. if need be, for more torque, you can add a 1/2 drive wrench to the adjusting wrench to make it longer, or use a hex bolt socket w/ wrench for the same idea.
