Re: how do i take off the rear wheels?
Few options, with car lifted/supported remove all lug nuts & put 1 back on a few turns. Then use a Ford wrench(hammer) to hit the TIRE off or use your foot and kick it. To prevent thise from happening again apply white lith. grease to wheel/brake contact points.
I've seen people loose all lug nuts & drive the car a few feet to break rim loose, that's not a good idea.

Re: how do i take off the rear wheels?
What happens is the wheel has seized/rusted to the brake rotor. Happened to me a couple times on my older Civic. Just kick the tire
