Might not be hitting it hard enough. I have seen my mechanic do it and you really need to give it a good shot.

Using a 2x4 to protect the rim, hit it from behind with a BFH, rotate, hit again, repeat.

Ive tried everything except loosening lugs a bit going backwards slam on brakes  then forward with the same thing.  thought easy job and was until last wheel.  if i cant brake it loose, will driving around with 3 new brakes and one not, is that an issue.  I was planning on getting tires rotated anyway, so let them brake it loose. my tire shop is not open today, and i need to drive this thing.  thoughts?

Just don't hit the edge of the rim, could cause a leak. About half way between the center and the edge.

One well placed smack with a sledge hammer should take care of it.Approve
