BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO REMOVE A WHEEL BE CERTAIN THAT
* the car is chocked or brake set so it cannot roll; * the jack is positioned at the manufacturer-recommended support point; * you have a secondary support positioned to hold the car should the jack slip; * no children or onlookers are too close and no one is in any way under the car.
The problem is that there is pressure from the car's weight on the wheel. Carefully, slowly adjust your jack a little bit up or down so that the wheel's weight is not hanging on the lugs and, more importantly, the car's weight is not resting on the lugs. When the pressure is off the wheel, it should slide easily over the lugs.
When replacing the wheel, adjust the jack in the same way to be sure the lugs are centered in the lug holes of the wheel rather than resting against the sides of the holes. This is important to the proper centering of the lug nuts.

Car in park!! Remove the plastic nut caps (5 of them). Loosen the lug nuts about two whole turns. Raise the car on a jack, following all safety precautions. Finish removing the nuts. If the wheel / tire doesn't come off easily, make sure nothing is under the car (tools, feet, etc) and whack the tire at the top and bottom or side to side, using the heels of your hands. If that still doesn't work, have it towed to a shop.

I own a 2009 Jeep Wrangler X and actually just had to change a flat. In the trunk of your jeep there will be a long lug nut "wrench" that was made specifically to remove the nuts that hold all of the tires on. Simply use this tool to remove the nuts on the spare tire and you are all set!
