    anyone know any tricks on how to get it out. It's really in there. I
    tried wd40 and clamped a vice grip on it to try and loosen it.

    Temporarily reinstall it on a wheel bolt (loosely), then twist the tire
    iron off it.

    I was gonna suggest the same thing - usually the simplest solution is
    the best... and the most overlooked :)

    I would beat it over my head first and if that didn't work try tapping it
    on the concrete, did you use the wrong side?
