Dude. the wheel is basically corroded to the hub. This is normal when you put aluminium next to steel. You can get a can of PB Blaster penetrating oil and spray the hub, or sit on the ground next to the truck ON JACK STANDS and kick one side of the wheel to break the bond.

Good luck.

Oh yeah. Before you put the wheels back on, put some anti sieze on the hub and studs.
