sticky aluminum wheels

As Fraser says, but don't put it on the rotor whatever you do! A thin smear on the hub contact surface to the wheel should help.
Usually when removing a stuck alloy wheel, I place the jack, crack all 5 nuts, remove 3, then raise the car a little of the ground. Slacken off the remaining 2, and if the wheel is stuck to the hub, a swift kick with the sole of my heel will break the seal.
Then finish raising the jack, and remove wheel.
