I use to (and still do) have the same problem. Once the key gets rusted to the axle and rim, they can be a real b----h to get off. I finally took a piece of 1/8th inch iron, long enough to fit inside the rim, sawed off the pull-bolt and nut from a pulley puller, drilled a hole through the iron big enough for the pull-bolt to go through, then welded the pull-bolt nut to the iron. Drilled two holes on each side of the iron and ran bolts through it and the rim. (If the rim doesn't already have two holes, drill new ones) As you tighten down the pull-bolt against the axle, occasionally wack it with a hammer. It's worked great for me! There's probably something out there a person can buy that does the same thing, but I'm cheap! You should soak the axle with PB Blaster, or some other rust inhibitor, for a couple of days before you try pulling the rim off the axle.
