Default Stuck rim

I cannot believe this machine is still in my shop but it is. The reason
being I cannot get the left rear tire off to change it.

Have been spraying and heating and all manner of everything for
3 days and it will not budge.

Started with a metal bar and a 2x4 between rim and frame. Drove
a wedge between them till I was afraid I would crack the rim or frame.
Drilled 2 holes in the rim and put my puller on it. Maxed out my 1/2
impact and can't budge it. Actually started to tear the rim out on the
back side from so much pressure.

Seems a little crazy to be asking how do you get a rim off a tractor?
But there it is.
