Sorry this is kinda late. The first time I had this problem was about 3 am in a small S.E. Minnesota town, thanks to a 4 inch long lag bolt going through. Every time I hit that tire, it sounded like a 20ga going off. I had some woman yell out her second story window to knock it off. I yelled back I was trying. 5 minutes later, the cops showed up.
I ended up putting the nuts back on, not quite finger tight, and lowering the jack so the weight of the truck basically forced it off. When I went to get the tire fixed, I had them rotate the rest of them. They were all stuck. I told them how I got the flat off, and, that's what they ended up doing to all of them.
When I got back home, I went to a buddy with a lift. I took off all the wheels, and smeared Nevr Seez on the mating surface. I never had any problem getting them off again.
