This has worked every time for me with rusted-on rims.
Haha. I did that with two buddies for a good 15 minutes until we gave up and used a mallet. No budge. Perhaps I need a bigger mallet haha.

EDIT: They probably rusted on tight because they've probably been on there for a few years. I doubt the mechanic rotated our tires...
