Re: Can't get rear wheels off 86 IROC
Wheels are probably frozen to the drums/rotors due to rust. What I've found works best is to spray your rust penetrant of choice in around the wheel studs, wait 10-15 minutes for it to work. Then, sitting on the ground in front of the wheel, give it a good hard kick on the bottom edge of the rim. Works for every time for me.

That's cause you're in Florida
Up north here, it's hard to find a car you don't have that problem with.
