When I did mine I had a bear of a time getting them off. Unless the part damaged there is no need to replace it really. Take the whole shebang and bolt it back to your wheel. (obviously off the car) then take your cheater bar and you can get those bolts off. You can also use PBBlaster, heat, etc. But I found once I bolted the disc back on the wheel the bolts came lose.
