    I have a problem with removing the rim from the hub.
    I have already removed 3 wheels, but the last one does not want to go down, it is very seared. How is this wheel removed?

    A large, 5 kg hammer with a feeling of the tire ... until it comes off. Just don't hit the rim edge.

    Hello
    Not very professional, but sometimes I pee with a rust remover, loosen the screws and a little ride forward, brake and back and brake, you can also make a small moose / it depends which wheel to loosen /. If it does not help, there is KUBA 5 kg.

    The hammer is too small, too little "accelerated" ...

    Maybe a colleague is beating a hammer in one place, and you need to alternate around the perimeter.

    Much better way than a hammer. You will only beat the rim with a hammer.
    As a colleague said above: you loosen slightly (so that the cone on the bolt / nut contacts the hole, not the screw thread) and make a sharp twisting maneuver several times until you succeed.

    Get a hammer a little heavier and hit the bottom of the tire.

    Hit the inside of the tire with a bigger hammer, the wheel should come off;] but that's what I always do

    Not really hammered :) It bounces off the tire :) I love it 1 bolt per pair of coils, I use WD40, I take the plank and I roll on the rim from the inside :D The board will not hurt the rim, and 1 bolt so that I do not have to look for the wheel somewhere far away :D

    Is it possible to slightly heat it with a burner in the place of the hub

    As predecessors wrote, on the inside there is a board on the rim and you ride with a hammer.
    It also depends on what holes you have in this rim, I had just the crowbar and it pressed against the shields from the inside and a healthy jerk.
    In the future, clean the hubs with a wire brush, sand the hole in the hub with sandpaper, and grind it with some grease, it will not clog. Peace of mind for 10 years :)

    Loosen the screws and take the car a bit of a road with curves, but slowly, surely it will let go.

    I used to be like that too. The steel rim at the rear would not come off. A guy in the workshop hammered the rim right next to the hole for the hub, through a kind of large chisel. He turned the wheel after each hit. I thought it was going to blow up the bearings, but no. The rim has come off. Now I lubricate with copper grease and I'm at peace.

    A method that is several dozen years old:
    Pour the kerosene, leave it for an hour, pour it again and after another hour it should come off easily. You can "help" it by lightly tapping it with a wooden or rubber hammer.

    You can moisten with some rust remover, but it is quite risky due to the aggressive ingredients that the rust remover contains (WD40, etc.).
    I used to have a Spanish spray called Caramba, it was very good but unfortunately it's over ...

    Well, here friend, I see it flashed, just wait until the shields break or grimace.

    I pulled in this way and on the front on a double vented and on the back on a single disc.
    The method practiced for about two years, I dropped the front wheels 25 times, the rear 15 times.
    No beats or cracks were found. As with 20kmh and 230kmh.
    I was taught, and made up my own mind, that the dial was hard but brittle.
    What will hurt her pressure? It is different if I eat it healthily ***** ...

    And what was the obstacle to cleaning / sawing holes in the rims or cleaning the "spigot" of the hub? The first time I did it ...


    My friend probably meant different cars ;)

    Usually the exchange was quick, there was no desire / time / equipment to clean the hubs or grind the hole in the rim ... Only when one time the man saw how tired he was with it, he grinded it and smeared something.
    I am still talking about one car that has really experienced a lot with me :)

    Reading the posts Colleagues ogur3k so as not to quote anymore, - did you want to bother your colleague 40 times, instead of doing the right thing once? : sm37:

    Of course, you didn't want to, but you had to quickly ... Of course, when I fought with it, the spells flew in bulk, including reproaching myself why once and I would not do it ... ;-) but man is stupid sometimes :-D

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around methods for removing a stuck steel rim from a hub, particularly when the rim is seized. Various techniques are suggested, including using a heavy hammer to strike the tire's inner side, applying rust remover or kerosene to loosen the rim, and utilizing a wooden plank to roll against the rim. Some users recommend loosening the screws and driving the vehicle in a circular motion to help release the rim. Others suggest heating the hub area with a burner or using a crowbar for leverage. Preventative measures include cleaning the hub with a wire brush and applying grease to avoid future seizing.
