Default Trailer tire issue

Just tried with the help of neighbor to loosen the last lug. Using a 4-way spanner wrench applied, lug seemed to break loose, and now spins, but still VERY tight.

Seems now like it's just turning but not actually coming loose, if you know what I mean ? Maybe spinning from the back side, don't know or can see, as brake housing is covering view.

We did, with the aid of his poratable air compressor, able to inflate tire, to where it's supposed to be. Will see if it holds air overnoight. At least now I can tow to tire dealer down the street to remove that last lug with Impact wrench, and inspect tire.

Like most on Forum have stated, both tires, are at this age probably need to be reaplaced.

Will circle back to forum with results after visiting tire dealer.
