I've had a problem where the rim becomes stuck to the disk (or drum). Usually a kick on one side of the rim breaks it loose. A whack with a rubber mallet works too.

For a particularly tough case, a propane torch can be used to heat the rim. The expansion of the metal should cause it to break free.
