it is a 1995 mitsubihsi mirage  

Answer
Nancy:You need to get some penetrating oil, like WD40 and apply to the threat areas where you took the nuts off from and in the middle of the rim. Put it on heavy and let it sit there for a while. If this is from a flat tire, that you might have drove on for a while or a bit anyway? The wheel could be bend and so it will not come off. But if you put that oil on it, then with a soft hammer, one that is made of rubber you can bang on the wheel. But again let the penetrating oil have some time to work before trying to bang on the wheel. It should come off. Hope this helps and good luck!
