Try heating the studs with a propane torch. this should cause a difference in expansion rates between the wheel and the studs and help break the bond. WD-40 the studs after they cool, jack up car so wheel will turn, get a 2" X 6"X 2 1/2' long so the end of the board will stand on floor and be against the sidewall. Now start asking the tire and wheel to start moving off the studs by using a 4lbs. hammer against the 2x6. Hit the 2x6 and rotate 180* strike again, rotate 90* and keep after it. Its kind of bouncy but you won't bend a wheel. Heat the end of the studs don't get them red hot, they are hot enough when a drop of water will dance on the stud. Keep in mind that there is a oil seal for the axle. Good luck!
