I had to take all my wheels off the other day for the first time ever. Man, what a pain that was! Here's what I had to do to get the most stubborn wheel off (after trying everything else first).
Stuff required (that isn't water, that's sweat). By the way, that was a brand new lead hammer before I started. Use propane -- it's cooler, NOT mapp or propylene -- too hot:
I put penetrating
oil in and let set for an hour or so, then put in ice where indicated and heated spinner carefully with a propane torch, then put in ice again. Smacked spinner on each ear evenly with a lead hammer (make SURE you're hitting in the right direction to loosen). Finally, after much sweat from swinging hammer it broke loose and off came the spinner and wheel, success.
Lesson learned here is to make sure to put anti-seize
oil on wheel before putting back on so it will be easier next time.
