Probably not a real good idea heating that either.

Right about the wheel.... I missed the "Jeep" part in the description there. Actually this may be in your favor because if it is an aluminum wheel, chances are it will be a bit easier to break the corrosion bond (versus rust) using just a good overnight soaking of the PB Blaster. Also, when tapping the wheel with a hammer, either use a plastic hammer or wrap the one you've got in duct tape or something so you don't ruin the wheel finish.
