What do you want to get off, tires or rims and tires?
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.

After the wheel is off and the nut, washers, and codder pin, the hub should slide off.

NO!! the tire and rim will come off by taking the 4 lug nuts off. 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.
