Default Need help...ASAP...wheel won't come off the car...

Well I just went out and tried to change my stock wheels to rims for the first time on my 00 hatch. Ran into the problem that my rear driver's side wheel is stuck on the car. Any suggestions or help is greatly appreciated!

Exactly, there's no way you could brake an axel. My suspension has tooken a beating, it's still in one peice. Give it a hard whack.

curse and swear at it, then kick the **** out of it a few times. If that doesn't work. Use a torch and cut the axle off completely
