What could cause the rear tire to remain stuck on the car even after the lug nuts have been removed?
A very tight fit between the rim and hub. I see that often with aluminum rims. Leave one lug nut on a few threads and hit the rubber tire (not the rim) from behind with a large hammer, rotating the tire ocassionaly. Once removed clean up the center of the rim and axle hub with some sandpaper and apply a little lube around that area before assembly.
Pressure is equal throughout the tire.

What is an average Cost of flagstone?
Well i always find flag stones can vary in price but being a stone mason myself i could give you a resonably good price and i have workshops all over the country.
I would say in my experience they can cost anything from £10 to £100 pounds however for more exquisit stone prices can be higher that i have previously stated.
the price also depends of the thickness of the stone too and of corse how big you would like it to be. I find that 50 mm flag stones often cost around abouts £20.
I must advise you though not to be drawn in to the many scheming cowboys that there are on the flag stone market today. i leave you with one piece of advice. ALWAYS do your homework about who you want to by flag stones off.
i hope this account has helped you
