Lengthy story of beating the snot out of a tire to get it off the hub
deleted...

Yeah, just another thing our expensive cars shouldn't do. I've since put
anti-seize on all the hubs, but even that doesn't always work. Rather than
work yourself into a lather beating up your tire to get it off, just loosen
the fasteners, make them hand tight, back off one turn, then drive the car
back and forth a few feet a few times. This will break the tire loose. If
it's a front you can feel it happen.
