Sheared a bolt.
#3
Heat is your friend here, since the hub is aluminium and the bolts are steel the wheel will expand faster than the bolts and allow you to undo the bolts. Be aware they are also loctited in place which makes it even more difficult but the heat will soften the loctite, good luck.
If necessary they can be drilled out. In the past I have drilled holes down throught the bolts prior to attempting to undo them as it is easier to centre the drill in the hex hole than trying to centre it on a sheared bolt.
