We're trying to remove a flat tire, and it won't budge. All the lugnuts are off, but it seems to be rusted shut.

Hi there,

This is often a problem with mag wheels, put the car on a stand on hard firm ground, don't leave on the jack. fit 1or2 wheel nuts only loose, and sit on the ground and kick the tyre with your heels left & right this shock normally breaks the seal, but make suer that the car is good and stable on a quality stank under the chassis and on firm bevel ground.
