nice solution!
i was a bit late but was going to suggest a product called "gator grip" or something like that [not sure whether it is still available. basically an arm with a socket with sliding pins where the socket hole would be that moulded to whatever your bolt was. you basically slide the socket over your bolt and the pins wrap itself around the bolt

What would you have done if the wheel wasn't expendable? E.g. MkIV R32 wheels from the dealer are now $1100.Comment

Prayed... Or maybe shoved dry ice in every orifice of the wheel, then use an enormous breaker bar.Originally posted by Langers View Post80,000km 1997 MK3 VR6 manual for sale - www.vwwatercooled.org.au/forums/f23/80-000km-1997-manual-vr6-nsw-sydney-67658.htmlComment

Did you try coke? That stuff loosens anything, and eats through anything.

Plan A.
What about loosening all the rest of the bolts a little and heating up the brake disc with a bit of fun driving?
Plan B.
a small handheld grinder to restore the flats on the bolt to a slightly smaller size.2015 Polo Comfortline 6M + Driving Comfort Package
