The rim with the tire on it should practically fall off, trying to take the tires off of the rim is almost impossible. I took mine to the local dealer and he had them off in minutes.

If you want to take the front hub off the spindle to grease the bearings, you must first take off the brake caliper. Because the rotor is attached to the hub that you are trying remove.
