I've never been able to get a 4200 wheel off by hand and always use a puller. Ferrari wheels just slide off though!
Different taper, perhaps?

Or the Edd China method. Leave the nut on and rock it like a bugger

Sadly I’m a short **** and my legs aren’t long enough
Long enough to reach the ground, if I recall

David, having done the same process, may I suggest you consider this a good opportunity to freshen your carpets with carpet dye?
Mine are black and the transformation was incredible. I have posted photos previously.
You may consider a colour change to dark blue or black?
It is an easy spray can process once you remove the carpets from the car.
Otherwise hire the carpet cleaner machine with the upholstery wand to decontaminate the coolant stains.
When I was looking for a replacement matrix, I found someone locally who'd make a copper and brass replacement for reasonable money but after a little instigation suggested the risk of galvanic corrosion, I decided it would be a bad idea.
