why would that rust solid onto the axle? does it not come from the factory lubed, or is the dealer supposed to lube it when they set it up for sale? that surprises me that it would take that much force to get it off the axle, wow.
mrbubetube, not sure. I bought it used and if I had to guess, it probably sat outside and wasn’t well taken care of. I would guess the other side is probably the same. I will deal with that when I need to change that tire.

Zero reason to remove Rim unless you want to waste a ton of time.
