Regarding whether the car needs to be off the ground as in the spinner 9-1-1 videos or not: The wheel simply needs to be able to move somewhat freely relative to the spinner. So I did not lift the car, but I also did not use chocks or put the car in gear or use the e-brake. That way the spinner 9-1-1 tool pulls the wheel toward the spinner and the car moves a little bit. Then the lead hammer finishes the job.
Thanks again.

Make sure it does not happen again by using some kind of anti seize and taking the spinners off every 6 months. I switched to Cobra Valley anti seize. The only reason I did this is because my rims are black and the silver or copper anti seize makes a mess. I can't speak for its effectiveness yet but it does in fact not make a mess.
