Just a quick update...talked to my local shop that has worked on ALL of our cars over the years.

He said "just apply a small torch to the nut to loosen the glue".....can you say D'OH! I've been a jeweler for almost 30 years, and that's one of the oldest tricks in the book. How soon we forget when it comes to our cars...two tries with the mini-torch and it came right out with the impact wrench.
Will post pics when I get the wheel back after the mods.
