hit the top of the donut with a 2x4 or a rubber mallet a couple of times to break it loose

That happens to me some times as well.. As mentioned above, a rubber mallet will do the trick.

Kick the top of the tire. If it still doesn't come off, put a regular tire nut on it, and at the back of the tire, kick the **** out of it or use a hammer to hammer it. It will definitely come off.
