my suggestion is use some anti-seize on the lip around the hub and back of wheel disc. then you wont have to carry a silly mallet.
I think the issue is actually from a little of the powdercoating being in the hubcentric area of the wheel. When the wheels heat up it remelts the powder and kinda glues itself to the hub. I need to lightly sand it out and it probably wont do that, just haven't gotten around to it. I do use the anti-seize on every nut and bolt I have ever taken off the car though, that way next time I have to remove them they are not such a major PITA to get off. Lugs get the same treatment. I don't care to carry the mallet either, just said meh, it doesn't move at all and cant been seen, so I haven't had the urgency to get on this little project.
