Help!!! I can't remove my rear tire?
okay loosen your lugs as the car is on the ground
once their loose, get a jack stick it underneath the car turn it or go up and down then it should be going up
after that take te lugs off
then the tire will come off
( oh, remember to use a lug nut wrench)

if it still doesn't come off... kick it.
lol.. funny guyss
No but seriously, its just rusted/siezed in there. If anything, leave one lug in loosely, and either kick it from the back, or hit the TIRE (NOT RIM) with a mallet/hammer. It should come loose.

I'm gonna give the benefit of the doubt that the lugs are off and the car is off the ground. Spray liquid wrench behind the rim on the hub, and around the lugnut holes, let it sit for a little while. Put your feet on the bottom of the tire, grab the top with your hands and lean back. Make sure nothing sharp is behind you.
take it easy--this happened to me when I first took the wheel off. just get a rubber mallet and whack the ****. it'll pop off.

i use to work in a shop and it would happen alot. its seized to the hub. take a rubber mallet and wack the **** out of the tire. move around the tire and it will loose it up. dont worry your not going to break it. give it all you got.

Just read some of your other posts. How do you think an HID retrofit is going to work out for someone who is presently being defeated by a wheel?? Know your limits, and start small. When I started reading this thread, I thought it was a joke. Wow. But yeah, just smack the hell outta the tire with a mallet or something. If that doesn't work, hit it with something bigger.

dont forget to disengage v-tecHk. tire wont come off without it....
omg people. no need for a mallet/sledge hammer/liquid wrench or whatever you use to take it off.
the bottom of your shoe is the fastest/easiest/simplest way. common sense isnt common
sorry to be rude, but this thread is just asking to get ragged on
