No tricks, they should just come off like any other rim. If you are talking about the brake rotor then that's another thing... They are rivited from the factory. :confused:

what i think happed is they rusted from water hitting em and then just lack of care "last oner NOT ME" so i think they will need some lube and some good pulling but i was like hell with this last night and thoight ill just make it someone elses problem whgen i take it in for tires hehe

If you are talking about the wheel rims (like the part the tire goes onto :crazy: ), then just give a little rap in the center with a hammer (2lb sledge or smaller) and that should persuade the rim off of the hub. Probably just rusted on.

When I chose to do the f/r suspension - had a similar problem, but w/ the front wheels. I asked my Dad the same question :) Just need to put some muscle into - or if you have a large enuf pry bar - worse comes to worse - take it to Discount Tire or something - tell them you have a slow leak you want fixed :) - - wish I had better suggestions for you - best of luck.

Soak in WD40, make sure all lugs are about 1/8th inch loose, do some spirited turns around the block, when you hear the wheel rocking around....all done. :jester

This may be a stupid answer, but maybe the emergency brake is on.
