But if you've been watching videos on youtube where they just pull them off by hand then that's a new wheel that they've just pulled apart to loosen anyway before filming, it's hardly ever that easy. If you've got any other similar, or are buying new wheels like that, pull them off and stick a little bit of grease round them.
