Default Pulling Wheels...

I'm currently trying to remove my wheels to rotate them, but they seem to be stuck. I got two of them removed by pounding on them, once I got them off they looked like they were rusted on. The two on the other side are even worse, I have been pounding on them, used wd40 to try to loosen them to no avail. Any other suggestions? I've been getting pretty frustrated, seemed like the previous owner never took them off :-)
Thanks

Typically I'll loosen the bolts/nuts 1/2 turn and drive around the block with stops/starts
