Wheel Centering
how big of a selection of rims is there for the 4x4 f150's? mine center on a hub that is on the rotor & rear axle, and when i need to get a rim off, it's always siezed on... (i'd like to beat the genius who decided the centering should come from the hub, and not the lug nuts)

Rule of thumb. CAUTION!!!!!!!!!!!
If wheel is stuck on HUB. Loosen wheel nuts, and run up hand tight. Perform a series of figure 8's in an abandond parking lot, and then you should be able to remove them. Drive slowly. That is what I read years ago in regards to this. The easiest way is just make a few circuits of your block and then pull the wheels off.
AGAIN, CAUTION!!!!!
