I have done this successfully quite a few times. Put all the nuts back on hand tight, then loosen them one turn. Drive about a hundred feet doing hard zig-zags. This will use a couple thousand pounds of car weight to bust the wheels loose. Make sure you use a little grease on the hubs when you reinstall the wheels.

You could try using a small jack by placing it behind the wheel and fra me of truck and Jack up the jack aginst the wheel.

try knocking the studs back. hit squarely on the studs with a 8lb mallet.

I used WD40, also the new Rust Remover WD40. I have beaten on the rim and the tire for hours. I left the lug nuts 1/4 turn loose and driven over 1000 miles, checking the lug nuts at every stop. Today I heated the rim around the center hub with a propane torch. Still no luck. I have even beaten on it with a cold chisel. Next is cutting the rim with a die grinder. Any suggestions are welcome.
