Just jack it as high as you can, let the jack off real quick. That 3500lbs of weight and the quick bounce might break that rust loose.

I can't believe people suggested driving without lugnuts lmao..... You would think this was a DSM forum or something!!!! LMAO Gonna tell me I can run more boost if I use vegetable oil in place of oil!? Or put sand in my oil for a free port n polish!? hehe

There was nothing else that would take them off but smashing it with a mallet several times..... and by mallet i mean a effin sledge hammer. (rim has seen better days tho.... but I want to get new ones soon)

and as for the Can of Man thing..... That was a pretty good one lmao! Does this mean I should use my MySpace pic as my Avatar again hmmmm!?!?!! LOL

That's why you don't ever use a hammer on your car! You're flaming people for saying to drive around without lugnuts and here you are smacking the hell out of your rims with a sledgehammer. Dee dee dee! Simplest way to get wheels that are stuck on off is to put the car on STURDY jackstands and lay on your back on the ground and kick the tire while someone else rotates it so you apply force to the entire circumference of the tire. I have never had a tire stay on using this method.
