I assume the drum is on the spindle and you can take the spindle nut off and pull the wheel with the drum and get at the backside ?
running up my post count some more .

The fronts are lug style and a wider bolt pattern...They have been swapped because somebody put the left hand studs on the passenger side.

Split the nuts in two places with a death wheel and hammer in a wedge to pop the bit off.
Another solution is to grab the nut with vise grips angled so they can't spin around and drill the bolt out until you can break it off.

I do have a cut off wheel... Why does everything take twice as long as it should? I'd suggest useing the cutoff rather than wallowing things out more with an impact & maybe making more damage. Murphys law it comes and goes (fortunately)

Trying to save the lugs? If not, just break them off. Take about 30 second per wheel. they just spin... well spun. I took my grinder zipped them right down the middle and popped the nuts off. 2 wheels 2 beers and 15 minutes and it was done. I'll pull them off tomorrow and knock the lugs out.

Put a socket on it with a long extension on it. Stand on the extension.

I have to admit I have never spun a stud in a hub before. I've snapped them off, rounded off the nuts. Buy some new studs and tack them in.
it's ok to butt heads, just don't do it with a butthead
