spray some wd40 around the centre hole in the brake drum then hit it with the biggest hammer you can find

another way is to spray it with wd40 and hit it with a rubber hammer around the edges until it gains a bit of play in it. once you have this play smack the centre in a rotational pattern and eventually it will fall off. nothing will be damaged by a rubber hammer

try repco but take your old ones in so they can match them for you

That's pretty much my approach to fixing anything I have to say.

Cheers,

I use the wheel bolted on with two or three nuts threaded on a little bit. Sort of like a slide hammer
