" and tire being put on the hub crooked is VERY COMMON with 1-ton 3/4 ton trucks and Discount Tire kids who don't know better. "
i don't understand how this could happen with so many lugnuts unless the air gun is weak and you aren't using the star pattern of tightening.
what I do if i can't pull the wheels off is i hammer the tire with the palms of my hands until it loosens, or i spin the wheel and hit the tire in one spot while it rotates so it jars it back and forth, and if that doesn't work....out comes the WD-40 and then i hit it from the inside while spinning the wheel.
