Keep sprayng it with the spray lube.
Try and get it behind the center of the hub and around the studs.
Now with it jacked up and secured on jackstand(s)
kick the top or bottom of the rim/tireand eventually it should come loose.

my bros lumina was the same we, we got it up in the air, put the lug nuts on so the wheel doesnt fly off, but just enough so the wheel moves, and hit it with a sludge hammer on the back, right on the edge of the rim, used a peice of wood to prevent damage, did the trick
