Aftermarket Steering Wheel Help

So i changed my steering wheel to an aftermarket wheel awhile back, and my problem is, i forgot to straighten out the steering wheel before putting the hub on so now im driving with a crooked aftermarket steering wheel. Is there anyway i can fix that? I tried removing the hub again, but that sucker is on there and wont budge. I even asked my dad and my uncle to try and take it off and they couldnt get it off. Any ideas or help guys?

Thanks.

Get a steering wheel puller to get the wheel off. Very inexpensive, usually you can rent one from a parts store. Off in seconds

I think i was unclear on what i wrote first. My problem is my steering wheel hub was put on when the tires werent straight. So basically, the hub is whats causing the steering wheel to look crooked when the tires are straight. Anyway to remove the hub?

Yes you will use the steering wheel puller to remove the hub. before putting it back on make sure your tires are straight. Lightly place the hub back on the splines, and test fit the steering wheel to make sure it is straight. If not lift up the hub off the splines, and re-align. One you are satisfied fully seat the hub and install the steering wheel.
