I'm getting ready to work on changing the tires on my old D19. The rims both have damage from calcium chloride and the tires are shot. My problem is, I don't have a big enough impact wrench to get the lug nuts broke loose. My thought is to just cut the lug bolts off and when everything is repaired and done use grade 8 bolts the same size with lock washers and bolt her back up. The only issue is the lugs currently on it, are square headed on the back. Is there any particular reason I can't cut them off and replace them with regular bolts, or do the square heads need to be on there to prevent something from happening?. I know the engineers probably had a reason they are square and do serve a purpose to be that way. Thanks in advance.
