I think it's rusted to the hub/brake assembly. I took off the lugs and it won't even move. I sprayed some penetrant behind the wheel and hit it and swore at it and it still won't budge. I was thinking that I might lower the jack so the weight of the car would do the job, but I'm afraid if it's rusted really tight, I just might end up bending my brake and suspension stuff.
Any Ideas? -------------------- |

kick the top of the rim with the heel of your foot.
It'll break loose. DEF --------------------  I will return one day. |
