Rear wheels change

Hello

I just decide to do the firs mod for my 2000 mustang gt (just paint brake calipers) so I stared whit front wheels, no problem with those just remove wheels and paint, when I went whit rear wheels I couldn't removed then after remove all nuts the wheel didn't moved,

is there an additional lock for rear wheels? My concern is what if a had an flat wheel I the middle of nothing? I just need to know if my wheels are stuck.!!

Probably just needs a bit of "persuasion" with a rubber mallet. I had a similar problem this week with my daily driver BMW.

Ya rust will develop on the flange of the axle to the back of the wheel, just give it a good beating it will cone off. I have to smash wheels with my dead blow hammer at work sometimes really hard don't be scared of it you'll be fine
