Most likely the wheel is stuck to the rotor or drum. This happens sometimes due to moisture getting in between them.

The easiest way to get it off is to go from the back side. Get yourself a BIG hammer and WHACK the rim at the outer edge (where it meets the tire) and it will eventually come off.

You would be smart to maybe put a little bit of grease between where the rim and surface of the drum or rototr meet. Try to keep it away from the lug bolts. Getting grease on them can make them come loose when you least expect it.

Hope this helps you out. Mark

Re: tire change

kicking it usualy does it for me.

other thing you can do is to lower the jack so wheel just touches ground, weight of car will loosen it up.
