Not sure if I should ask this here or not.Looking to replace the bearings and seals on my trailer. Problem is I can not get the wheels off. THey are stuck. I wiggled them real hard and been hitting them on the back with a rubber mallet hard and they will not budge. Any suggestions?

"Well there is no clear cut answer for that one, all I can suggest is a good penetrating oil KROIL is one of the best, and rust check is good to one way or the other you need to allow it to do it's work. 24hrs suggested, you may still have to give it a wack but should release, be sure to use grease or never seize during re install, bearings should be checked and greased often."
 
If you mean the rims are stuck

If you mean the rims are stuck on the hub....loosen all the lug nuts about two turns and drive it around the block a few times making hard left and right turns. That should do it
