loosen lugs, turn them out a few turns, then lower your car and set it back on ground. It should loosen it.

Use thee old Nike hammer! Sit on your butt and kick the tire. One foot at 3 o'clock and the other at 9 o'clock. No joke! I would do this before loosen the lugs and lowering the car.

just give the tire a good kick, they tend to stick if they havent been off in a while

Once you get them off make sure to clean the outer diameter of the hub and inner diameter of the wheel before you put them back on.. I usually use a little high temp anti seize on the lug nuts and wheels just to make it easier to disassemble.

In extreme cases you might need to use PB buster to help loosen them.. (Do not use chunky peanut butter)
