This can be a bitch to undo. I have broken 2 ratchets, 2 tommy bars and 2 standard 1/2 inch breaker bars trying this.
Get a good 1/2 inch breaker bar at least 2 foot long (I bought a 3/4 inch monster), and always grease the threads thoroughly when re-installing.

Or just take the socket and your bike to your nearest tyre dealer and get them to just loosen it with an air gun, then just nip it back up and pootle home.
