HI'
  Ashley, ok to remove the wheel you are going to need a wheel puller. first you will have to be carefull and take off the front piece ,be carefull of the blinker and hazzerd set up, and cap and remove the signal and horn fuses so you do not short anything out. than you are going to take the large nut off that is holding it on off, then you place the puller over the center of the wheel and you will put three bolts thru the puller and than you will turn the puller nut off and than if it does not pull off take a hammer and put the big nut back on turn it down till it is flush and tap it with a hammer a few times it will come off , even if you have someone in the back seat pulling up on it while you tap it.now prior to taking it off mark it so you put it back on the same way it came off.
ok
